I meant specifically iron rather than another metal. Although I have no idea. It's a real puzzler this thing. Either the tools are all connected to the same trade or they're all examples of the types of tools that were made at this location. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I would agree it is a part of Calton Hill, I would respectively suggest that as an answer it is too vague.
