Bank Top Chimney, Rosedale, Ryedale, North Yorkshire, 1967. Bank Top Chimney viewed across a small reservoir. The chimney served an engine house at Hollins Mine (ironstone). In Rosedale in 1853 magnetite ore, a high grade iron ore, was discovered just north east of Hollins Farm. Hollins was the first of a number of mines to be established around Rosedale, and was worked intensively from 1859 by the Rosedale Mining Company. The chimney was demolished in 1972.
