Earls Barton Pits Iron Mine (United Kingdom)

This was started in 1913 as the Earls Barton Ironstone Co Ltd which was really a joint venture of Stanton Ironworks Co, Shelton Iron Steel & Coal Co amongst others... The concern was quite small and the ore was of variable quality and it is likely that it only survived due to WW1, closing during the post war recession in demand during 1921.
