  • Exploring the Landscape of Primary School Leadership and Management Problems

    G C Dunning, Gerald DunningARTICLEEuropean Education2009

    This article considers the problematic nature of primary headship. It reviews evidence of some of the most significant problems encountered by new and experienced heads derived from two sources: the UK dimension of a European questionnaire survey undertaken in the mid 1990s and more recent reports gained from interviews with serving school leaders. The article uses the evidence base afforded by these sources to identify a set of selected theory b…

    A D Saunders, Tiya Miles et al.ARTICLEMedieval Archaeology1980Cited by: 2References: 4

    EXAMINATION of the structure of the stone tower and excavation of it and of the associated earthworks at Lydford, Devon, revealed that the earliest structure, presumed to be the firme domus referred to in the Pipe Rolls for 1195, had been a free-standing, purpose-built gaol. It was partly demolished, and the upper part entirely rebuilt towards the middle of the 13th century. The original ground floor was filled up and the tower enclosed by a ditc…

  • A Late 13th and Early 14th-Century Tile Factory at Danbury, Essex

    THE EXCAVATION of a practically complete medieval tile factory, in operation between c. 1275/85 and 1325/35, is described. The establishment comprised three buildings, interpreted as workmen's accommodation (A), a workshop (B), and a drying shed (C), together with two kilns, within a ditched roadside enclosure. The kilns were of the normal type, with two parallel flues; one had a walled stokepit reached by a tile staircase. The methods of tile ma…

    The purpose of this paper is to place on record several discoveries of Neolithic pottery and flint implements which have been made in East Kent during the past seventy years. The preservation of most of the pottery is due to our late Fellow Mr. W. P. D. Stebbing of Upper Deal, who also possessed a manuscript notebook kept by the late Captain C. F. Newington giving details of the finds. Mr. Stebbing also conducted a rescue excavation of the pit at…

  • Saxon and Norman Pottery from Colchester Castle Park

    Open AccessG C DunningARTICLEThe Antiquaries Journal1962Cited by: 1

    The pottery is divided into four groups according to the stratigraphical evidence, which is given in detail in the descriptions of the pottery on pp. 66–67. With one exception (group 1, no. 1), which is a stray of earlier date, all the pottery may be regarded as contemporary, since even the latest, group 4 from pit C1, was sealed by the old turf-line over the Norman Bank. There is no historical evidence for the construction of this Bank, but sinc…

    The sword was found in September 1948 in the course of deep excavations for the foundations of a new underground boiler-house for the Houses of Parliament, in Victoria Tower Gardens on the south side of the House of Lords. As the site lies within the precincts of the medieval Palace of Westminster, the sword has been given this title to distinguish it from other ancient swords found in the region. The sword is Crown property, and after cleaning a…

    This kiln was first discovered in 1931 when Messrs. Hughes erected the Bedford Garage on the site of the former Blue-Coat School (St. John's Hospital) in the upper part of the city. The architect, the late Mr. Harbottle Read, was interested in the structure and arranged that it should be preserved in a pit, 4 ft. 6 in. square, beneath the new concrete floor and covered by heavy iron covers. In this way it survived the bombing of Exeter in 1942 wh…

  • The use of blue slate for roofing in medieval England

    Documentary sources and excavated evidence have both shown that blue slate, occurring naturally in the older rock formations of the more westerly parts of Britain, was used to a considerable extent for roofing during the middle ages in a wide area of southern England. The evidence as at present known is summarized in the map, fig. i. Although new evidence occurs from time to time in documents, particularly as building accounts are more fully expl…

  • Twelfth-Century Pottery from Exeter

    Open AccessG C Dunning, Aileen FoxARTICLEThe Antiquaries Journal1951References: 1

    Excavations on the bombed sites in the centre of Exeter were carried out in 1945–7 on behalf of the Committee for War-damaged Exeter: their main objective was to gain an understanding of the history and plan of the city in Roman times, but the remains of later periods were also to be investigated as opportunities arose in the course of the work. An important group of early medieval pottery was found in 1946, and it is considered to deserve public…
