Rispey Smelt Mill
This was the first smeltmill in the Rookhope Valley. The remains of the early mill can still be seen tucked into the
hillside near the Rookhope Burn. There would have been one orehearth with an air blast powered by a small watershed.
A slightly larger mill was built in 1700 and operated till 1740 when Lintzgarth Mill was built.
