Current Location of Phoenix Ironworks

The original entrance to Thrupp Mill and Ironworks was down a short lane just off the A419 Stroud to Cirencester Road.

The Thrupp Mill was to the right.

By 1881, the wall of the foundry and ironworks reached up the edge of the lane and curved to follow it. The blocks where the modern boundary fence is are modern.

In the present day, the site is occupied by engineering company Impcross.
