Calamine House, Redmire Moor
Elder growing in the ruins of The Calamine House on Cobscar Rake, Redmire Moor, Wensleydale in the Yorkshire Dales, North Yorkshire.
This building was recorded as a smithy in 1762, then as The Calamine House in 1851.
The ruin is all that remains of Cobscar Calamine House where calamine (zinc carbonate ZnCO3) was processed from the Hemimorphite found in the nearby lead workings. Zinc minerals were first used commercially in 1794 when zinc carbonate began to be used in the brass industry.
