Abstract
Flint and chert implements from Froggatt, Derbyshire
A H Henderson
138 - 142
SK 244761. Describes a casual find of eleven flint and chert artefacts from the Derwent Valley, near Sheffield. The assemblage (including burins and retouched and utilised blades and flakes) is interpreted as a kit of multi-purpose implements deposited as a temporary cache, and used primarily for tasks involving "cutting". The artefacts are compared functionally and typologically with those from the Late Upper Palaeolithic open-site at Hengistbury Head, which has been tentatively dated to the Aller d/Younger Dryas transition, c 11,000 BP. The author emphasises the importance of the Froggatt assemblage as additional evidence for Late Upper Palaeolithic occupation in Northern England; and suggests that contemporary open-sites are yet to be found in the Sheffield area.

The ironworks at Chapeltown S Yorkshire
David Hey
254 - 259
The 17th-century works at Chapel Furnace, now obliterated, is placed in its historical context, from its construction by 1628, through its well-documented use by the Copleys from 1652 and the Spencer partnerships from the end of the century, to its development into the Chapeltown Ironworks after the 1760s. The likely form of the structure is suggested, by reference to the surviving Rockley Furnace of 1652. Surviving traces of minepits, and coppice-wood placenames, are noted in the Chapeltown district. The material for the later history of the Chapeltown Ironworks is briefly reviewed. D W C
