I grew up on Harehope farm nearby and the local farmer and few others believe it was used as huge fermenting bin. there was once a large wooden bung for the hole at the bottom. If anyone has any other thoughts do spill. We use it as place for hide and seek in the hills.
Captain Samuel Brown RN designed and built Union Bridge, aka The Chain Bridge. It opened in 1820, six years before Telford's Menai Straits Bridge and FORTY FOUR years before Brunel's Clifton Suspension Bridge. The 'northern' end is actually further south than the 'southern' end.
Many thanks to ? for suggesting the photo position was wrong. It was, although I don't altogether agree with the location you suggest! It was, as I recall, a bit of a b***** to find; I HOPE I've got it exactly right now.

They're actually spoil heaps from iron ore extraction. . . . but look at them with Google Earth!
