Abstract
A Long and Winding Road; Access to Grey Literature
Helen M Gomersall
1 - 3
Comprehensive survey of the availability and accessibility of archaeological grey literature. Initially a positive contrast is drawn with the situation in the 1970s and 1980s, when post-excavation work and publication could be delayed for decades. However, although many more projects are now written up, access to the results of much fieldwork is still limited. An overview of online availability in England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland is given, and the position in some other countries is summarised. It is concluded that the present situation in Britain appears encouraging, but that the current economic climate is already having a negative effect on those online databases that have been set up. It is vital that everyone in the archaeological community both uses these sites and contributes to them. LD
An Introduction to the Archaeology of the Glass Industry; The Monuments Protection Programme Step 1 Report
David R Crossley
24 - 36
Presents an overview of the archaeology of the glass industry in Britain from the Roman period to the 20th century. Based upon work undertaken in 1992'3 for the English Heritage Monuments Protection Programme (MPP) and revised later in that decade, with additions to take account of the developer-funded archaeological work undertaken in recent years. Concentrates on the development of technology in the charcoal- and coal-fired glass industries and contains descriptions of sites and terminology.\r\n
Three and a Half Centuries of Bottle Manufacture
D. Dungworth
37 - 50
Looks at the development of the bottle glass industry in England. The production of bottles is considered from both a typological perspective and through the chemical composition of the glass used. Samples of bottles and bottle production debris from many different production sites have been analysed to determine their chemical composition. The changes in the social organisation of the industry are discussed in relation to the changing materials and technologies employed in bottle production.\r\n
Glass Recipes and the Output from a 19th-Century Glass Works; Examples from Percival, Vickers & Co. Ltd, Manches...
Hugh Willmott
Ian Miller
C M Jackson
51 - 64
Presents an analysis of the glass recovered from excavations at the site. Scientific analysis of the glass compositions revealed that a variety of recipes were used, and these related closely to the different ways that glass was being worked on site, as evidenced by the various types of waste. A relatively small but nevertheless significant number of vessel fragments were also recovered, allowing the output of the glass works to be characterised for the first time.
