Description
The most prominent surviving feature of the Clyne Wood works, the Ivy Tower is the stump of the main chimney stack of a large uphill flue. This has been embellished with battlements, an internal staircase, a gothic window and a door. There may originally have been a condensing chamber in the base of the stack.
