Abstract
Editorial; Industrial Heritage at Risk
Michael D Nevell
79 - 80
Discusses threats to industrial heritage, both in Britain and Ireland and internationally. PP-B
The Rolt Memorial Lecture 2009; The Death of the Industrial Past?
David Alderton
81 - 95
Begins by examining the degree to which the archaeological evidence for the industrial period has disappeared. Compares a record of significant industrial sites in eastern England made in the late 1970s with what survived 30 years later. Then seeks to investigate whether the evident decline in industrial activity and the disappearance of some industries entirely really constitutes the death of the industrial past, or whether it is our perceptions and definitions of what constitutes 'industry' and 'industrial archaeology' which need examining.
Technological Continuity, Technological 'Survival' ; The Use of Horizontal Mills in Western Ireland, c....
Colin Rynne
96 - 105
Discusses the continued use of the early medieval horizontal waterwheel form, well into the post-medieval period in the Atlantic Provinces of the British Isles. Argues that archaeological and documentary evidence demonstrates that the horizontal mills of western Ireland represent the continued use of this technology from the early medieval period in to modern times. Similarly, argues that the traditional horizontal mills of Scotland and its western islands can, on linguistic grounds, be linked into the same enduring tradition. The continued use of this technology in these societies is suggested to be as much a product of social context and choice, as it was a technological 'survival' in a 'marginalised' area.
Excavating the 18th- and 19th-Century Urban Flour Mill; the Example of the Archaeological Investigations a...
Rebecca Haslam
106 - 121
The area occupied by the former J.A. Symes match factory, Highbridge Road, Barking, was once home to a large steam- and water-powered flourmill. The mill was originally driven by the tidal flow of the River Roding, prior to its expansion and gradual conversion to steam. A residential redevelopment, undertaken in spring 2006, provided an opportunity to conduct a developer-funded archaeological investigation, carried out by Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd. The excavation exposed the partial, multi-phase remains of the mill's below-ground foundations, in particular the evidence for successive power systems. These remains were interpreted with the help of documentary research, demonstrating the complementary nature of these two forms of evidence on an urban industrial site.
