vox Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 NETHER BANK (1809) in the parish of Ecclesfield north division of the wapentake of Strafforth and Tickhill, 4 miles from Sheffield 5 from Rotherham 6 from Barnsley. ----------------------- Nether Bank ?? Edit: Possible ?. - around Wortley Top Forge, but if it is, then the distances above are a long way out. This is from from Wikipedia. The two forges (Wortley Top Forge & Wortley Low Forge) were always leased together with a blast furnace, Nether Bank Furnace until the latter's closure probably about 1780, all of them being rented from the Wortley family.
