Cuckfield Furnace Site Survey 1989, by J. Berners-Price, R. G. Houghton and J. S. Hodgkinson, published 1991 in Wealden Iron Research Group (Second Series No. 11, article, pp.7-9, ISSN: 0266-4402) accessible at: W.S.R.O. [Lib 16400] & The Keep [LIB/506560] Download PDF
Abstract:Due to the undergrowth on the site, distances and directions are deceptive, and for this reason some slight revision of the conclusions in Cleere & Crossley is necessary. The site is, in many ways, typical of Wealden furnace sites, with the probable position of the furnace dictated by the access for wagons, and evidence of water management in the arrangement of water courses.

Abstract:A three-man visit was paid to this site (TQ 601335: Cleere and Crossley No. 101) in October 1992, prior to a full-scale survey, but so many unanswered problems arose that a further visit, by a larger party, was made in November 1992.
