Abstract: |
Stuart W. Feather (1927-2002), founder and former curator of Bradford Industrial Museum, was in his private time an avid collector of prehistoric material for almost half a century, during which he amassed an impressive lithic collection off the local moorlands surrounding his home town of Keighley in West Yorkshire. Through the kindness of his widow, what remains of this collection was recently passed to the author and others for analysis. The vast majority of this lithic material is later Mesolithic, including characteristic 'narrow blade' tools, and following on from the work of previous authors and collectors, such as Crowther, Turner and Gilks, adds considerably to our knowledge of Mesolithic activity in this part of the Pennines. |
