All About Sussex
Description edit
Excerpted from the website:
- Introduction
- Although iron had been produced in the county before the Romans came, the industry boomed in the late fifteenth century after the blast-furnace was invented. This could produce 20 to 30 times more iron than the previous method of smelting using bloomeries. Sussex had the two ingredients required - easily obtainable iron ore and timber.
- Located some 50 miles (80 km) south of London, where the land meets the sea, is the ancient county of Sussex.
