Abstract: |
Excavation at a medieval castle produced 13 kg of slag. The types of slag recovered were all characteristic of iron smithing. Slags were recovered from most phases of occupation but may have been residual in the later phases. The only phase to produce a wide range of slag types pre-dated the construction of the castle. The 1.2 kg of lead waste was produced during the melting of lead; this may be associated with the manufacture of fittings, their fitting or recovery during demolition. |
