Duddon furnace
The Duddon furnace (Grid Reference SD 197883) is a surviving charcoal-fueled blast furnace near Broughton-in-Furness in Cumbria. It is on the west side of the River Duddon in the parish of Millom and formerly in Cumberland.
==History==
The furnace was originally established as a joint venture of the Cunsey Company and the Backbarrow Company in 1736,〔Lancashire Record Office, DDSa 38/3.〕〔A. Fell, ''The Early Iron Industry of Furness and District'' (1908), 215.〕 but the Backbarrow Company sold their share to the Cunsey Company in 1741.〔Lancs. RO, DDMc 30/40. 〕 The Cunsey Company already owned Cunsey Furnace and Spark Forge, but they closed Cunsey Furnace in 1750,〔Cumbria Record Office, Barrow in Furness, Z 24. 〕〔Fell, 202 209. 〕 thus becoming the Duddon Company. The partners in the Cunsey Company in 1737 were Edward Hall of Cranage, Warine Falkner of Rugeley, Thomas Cotton of Eardley (Cheshire) and Edward Kendall of Stourbridge.〔 Following the deaths of several partners, the firm became Jonathan Kendall & Co. They also built Argyll Furnace (also called Craleckan or Goatfield) in 1755.〔Date on furnace lintel: the date of 1775 given at Fell, 266, and copied by others is probably the result of a misprint.〕 The ironworks was managed by William Latham, who between 1772 and 1775 was shipping pig iron to Warren Sayes of Chepstow, but the sales were managed by Jonathan Kendall.〔Accounts, Lancs RO, DDX 192.〕 Henry Kendall (a partner) died at Ulverston in 1787.〔Fell, 266. 〕 William Latham's sons Richard and Joseph renewed the lease in 1790. They continued the works until 1828, when they sold it to Harrison Ainslie and Co., who operated it until 1867.〔Fell, 266〕
