Lead smelter that was active until about 1880 (and was maintained until 1900).
The remaining remains were built in 1849, on a site where two smelters had previously stood (as early as 1770).
Interesting video with an overview of the function of the various parts, as they are still recognizable in the ruins, can be found on YouTube:
