The remains consist of two chimneys of the annealing ovens, a linking wall and a
lean-to building. The brassworks was founded in the 1760's by William Champion
of Warmley. The two pylon shaped chimneys are approximately 25' high and are
constructed of rubble with ashlar dressings, coping and quoins. Through arches
from east to west on Eastern chimney and from north to south on Western chimney;
above are tall, narrow openings for the missing balance beams. The Western
chimney has a 'V' mark of a former outbuilding on its south side; the Eastern
chimney has a single storey lean-to with a double Roman tiled roof on the north
side. Between the two chimneys is a linking wall which is pierced by two
segmental-headed openings. The Kelston brass works was sold to the Bristol
Brass Company in 1769 and it was used to produce batteryware until the 1840's.
