Abstract
The Stone Dam Mill Engine House
Ron Fitzgerald
115 - 131
The author presents a detailed account of the engine house of Stone Dam Mill, the oldest standing textile mill in the historic Halifax township. The historical background and documentary sources relating to the mill are outlined, followed by a description and analysis of the surviving features of the Stone Dam Mill engine and a discussion of the conclusions reached concerning its power. The article is preceded by a critique of industrial archaeology's lack of a distinctive identity, as perceived by the author, and consequent bias towards sociological concerns and away from science and technology.
Sublime Cascades; Water and Power in Coalbrookdale
Paul Belford
133 - 148
The Coalbrookdale Watercourses Project took place between 2000 and 2006, and comprised the most extensive renovation of the water power system in over a century. Ironbridge Archaeology undertook historical and archaeological investigation as part of an interdisciplinary project. The archaeological work was closely integrated into the engineering programme, and the results of excavation and research were able to inform conservation. The paper outlines the historic origins of the water power system in Coalbrookdale, and describes the archaeological work undertaken during the project. The results of the work suggest that the basic layout of the original sixteenth- and seventeenth-century system is preserved in the present-day arrangement of culverts, sluices and pools.
