Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
This article summarises the findings from an archaeological excavation of the former Wearside Pottery in Sunderland. The city has a rich heritage of producing a range of wares for the home and export markets. However, its numerous potworks have all now been demolished, and the lack of surviving physical remains is in stark contrast to the former importance of the local industry. Established in 1913, the Wearside Pottery was the last potworks to be built in the town; its closure in 1957 marked the end of Sunderland's long tradition of producing pottery. The excavation exposed the foundations of the principal manufacturing areas, including the base of a coal-fired bottle kiln, and enabled the process-flow through at least part of the site to be established. A review of the available documentary material, coupled with the archaeological evidence, has also allowed several stages in the development of the potworks to be identified. | ||||
