Description:Goldendale Ironworks was situated on the outskirts of Tunstall, just below the cemetery. In the background is Harecastle Hill and Harecastle Farm, where in the days of the canal boats the women or children would walk the horses over the hill whilst the men 'legged' the narrow boat through the mile-long Harecastle tunnel.
The works closed in the late 1960's and the was land reclaimed. The new Tunstall Western By-pass runs just the other side of the works.
