The BBC has some nice photos and a little background on Iron Bridge

worth a look.  I was last there I think in 1991 but a great place to see history of Iron and Steel in England.
The picture of the big hammer has a pudding furnace behind it and the two wheel dolly is for moving the ball of raw iron to the hammer.  The anvil is out of place - just someone's idea of what should be in the picture.
