Full Description
{1} This works, opened in about 1867, was situated in the north-east corner of the crossing of the railway at Twywell Station by the Kettering to Stamford Road. Built by Thomas Walters, an iron ore proprietor in the area, the yard was probably acquired by P Phipps and Co Ltd (the Northamptin brewers) about 1873 when the Newbridge Iron Co acquired the ironstone interests. By 1888 there were several kilns at work but by the mid 1890s the yard had closed.
