Description

Circular-plan roughly-dressed limestone chimney, built c.1850, now disused, at site of former copper mine.

Appraisal

This is a reminder of the copper mining heritage of the Hollyford area. The steeply sloping profile gives it a rather squat appearance, despite its height, in contrast to many of the former mining chimneys in South Tipperary.
