Abstract: |
Ninety-one panes of window glass at Oxburgh Hall were analysed in situ and nondestructively using portable X-Ray Fluorescence. This technique successfully identified individual panes with compositions that can be assigned to types that are known to have been produced during specific periods in the past. Slightly more than half of the analysed glass belongs to a type (HLLA) which was originally produced before the 18th century but most of the remaining glass would have been made in the 19th or 20th centuries. A consideration of the arrangement and distribution of the glass suggests that most of the windows are 19th-century creations. |
