Description: The Roane Iron Company furnace site at the end of Rockwood Avenue in Rockwood, Tennessee, USA. A large iron furnace operated here from the late 1860s into the 1920s, making use of coal and iron mined on Walden Ridge (in the background). The white building on the left appears in late 19th-century photographs of the furnace (it's on the extreme left in this example).
