Actually, the main mass of Bath Furnace is in the Chicago Field
Museum, weighing a whopping 82.5 kg. About 1 kg is in London,
and the rest is distributed somewhere in other collections
with 537 g in Jim Schwade´s one, according to MetBase V6.0.

Anyone interested in old documents? Well, here we go:
