Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Results for 1950-9 and a study of Yorkshire medieval pottery are included in this final report. A considerable expansion of the Abbey was reflected in the installation of central drainage, probably by AD 1230. The (?)timber-framed infirmary dates from 1152 or earlier. The S range contained stores for river traffic. Kirkstall's main importance lies in its sequence of W Riding pottery, though there is not little evidence for the kilns formerly suspected here. The 12th cent gritty northern ware is renamed pimply ware and dissociated from the Cistercians; it developed from earlier York wares and persisted well into 14th cent. No pimply ware kilns are yet known, and pottery organisation for this period is still obscure. After 1250, however, kilns proliferated, producing varied wares for the new markets and fairs; influence from metal vessels and exotic forms is seen, while traditional forms continued in use. In later 15th cent there is evidence for larger production units and increased specialisation; the origins of Cistercian ware are still obscure. Notes on imported maiolica and flasks are included. |
