Abstract: |
The preservation of industrial monuments can be justified on the grounds that a particular monument has an educational function, or potential for excavation. This article suggests that in addition a surviving monument continually poses questions about its own past, and about wider historical issues. As an example, understanding of the Coalport Bridge has increased over the last twelve years, not just because new documentary sources have come to light, but because it has been possible to use the evidence of the structure itself to test the authenticity of other sources. |
