Abstract
Excavations at the 17th-century glasshouse at Haughton Green, Denton, near Manchester
Ruth Hurst-Vose
1 - 71
The remains of a glasshouse, with coal-fired furnace, dating approximately from 1615 to 1653, were located in the valley of the river Tame and were excavated between 1969 and 1973. Only partial excavation of the site was possible, but the main furnace was fully excavated and three subsidiary furnaces exposed nearby. The main furnace probably held four pots, with two pots resting on parallel sieges, the main feature being a deep passage running beneath the sieges which fed air to the central iron grid which would have supported the coal fuel. The subsidiary furnaces were probably annealing furnaces for cooling the glass. The products included good quality forest style vessel glass in green, black and blue glass with moulded and applied furnace decoration, bottles and chemical ware, and cylinder window glass. Specialist reports include `The refractory qualities of Haughton Green clay and crucibles' by J F E Cholerton (45), `Closed crucible' by D Ashurst & F E Ashurst (45--8), `Pottery' by P J Davey (49--54), `The clay tobacco pipes' by P J Davey & D A Higgins (55), `Leather' by June M Swann (55--6), `Wood' by Graham H Taylor (56), `Glass composition and raw materials' by G W F Pardoe (56--9), and a `Geological commentary -- Haughton Green' by Fred Broadhurst (5). An appendix concerning glass-making families associated with Haughton Green (59--65) closes the report.
Closed urban churchyards in England and Wales: some survey results
Harold C Mytum
Julie Dunk
Julie Rugg
111 - 114
Considers the condition of closed churchyards using evidence gleaned from: a postal questionnaire for data on national patterns of management for cemeteries and closed churchyards; interviews with cemetery managers and other local authority officers; and CBA recording guidelines and recording form. There is still evidence present on many sites, and the most vulnerable point for this material is at the handover from parochial church council to local authority care.
A brief survey on the summit of the Calf of Man
Kevin Blockley
115 - 118
Reports a survey prompted by continued collapse and burrowing damage. Three phases of structural activity were isolated. Previously interpreted as a keeill, the present author instead postulates that its proportions may indicate a light tower with adjacent living quarters, tentatively dated to the eighteenth century.
