Inlagan med ett fåtal spridda småfläckar och hörnveck, dock ovanligt ren och snygg. Svedenstjerna (1765-1825), bergsvetenskapsman. Han gjorde denna studieresa på Brukssocietetens bekostnad för att inhämta kunskaper om ländernas järnframställning. Svensk biografiskt lexikon skriver: "I november 1802 reste S över Engelska kanalen och etablerade sig snabbt i London, där han försökte skaffa sig inblick i den engelska järnindustrins organisation. Efter att ha besökt en rad institut, organisationer och privatpersoner reste S på inrådan av samlaren, politikern m m Charles Greville till Devon och Cornwall, för att sedan fortsätta till Wales, där han besåg landets troligen största järnverk, Cyfarthfa, som ensamt producerade närmare hälften av den kvantitet stång- och tackjärn som tillverkades totalt vid de svenska järnverken. Andra industriellt viktiga orter som S besökte under sin sex månader långa rundresa som även förde till Skottland i norr var städerna Birmingham, Sheffield, Newcastle upon Tyne och bomullsindustrins Manchester. På vägen dokumenterade han allt från tenn- och koppargruvor, järn- och kopparindustrier, kolgruvor, ångmaskiner och kanaler till järnbron vid Ironbridge, och han försummade heller inte att besöka mer turistiska sevärdheter.".
