Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	Report on an assessment excavation which revealed evidence of activities within the Roman cemetery in Handbridge, Chester, which indicate the existence there of a significant late Roman building. Demolition of this building led to the development of an industry based on glass recycling and craft production in post-Roman times. The origin of these activities is possibly ecclesiastical. Documentary evidence confirms that glassmakers were operating in Handbridge from late medieval times onwards. The excavated evidence is consistent with the documents and demonstrates industrial activities developing during the course of the medieval period and on into the eighteenth century. These comprised potting and glass working, as well as other crafts. Alongside local production, there is evidence of a lengthy tradition of imported ceramics, symptoms of commercial contacts between Chester and various British and continental ports. From the fourteenth century onwards, the industrial processes can be connected with a local merchant family involved in glassmaking and glazing, the Dalbys.
