Tow Law is a town developed for iron smelting and finishing, exploiting local coal and iron ore deposits. The name, however, is olde English meaning hill look-out. The Old Station Inn, on the corner of High Street and Station Street, is a reminder of the town's railway station, closed to passengers in 1956.
