Industrial Archaeology
Industrial Archaeology (1972) presents an in-depth investigation of the nature, methods and materials of the archaeology of industry in the UK, from pre-Roman times to the late twentieth century. It studies topics such as coal and lead mining, textiles, wagon-ways and railways, canals, iron, steel and chemicals, glass-making, agriculture, brewing and many other trades, illustrated by a large number of examples (with photographs of many now-demoli…
Archaeology in the Pennines: Studies in Honour of Arthur Raistrick
Two Centuries of Industrial Welfare
Beginning with a general background consisting of Alexis de Tocqueville's view of the effects of democracy on American men and on their relations to women, the author next discusses the male domination of parturition in America and the im- portant international standing of American gynaecological surgery in the nineteenth century, including an account of J. Marion Sims.The third and fourth parts of the book deal with individuals: the Rev. John To…
The Rolt Memorial Lecture, 1979 The Old Furnace at Coalbrookdale, Shropshire
The decision of Allied Ironfounders Ltd in 1950 to clean and make use of the area of the buried (Old Furnace) in the Upper Works at Coalbrookdale revealed the extent and condition of the remains. Clearance for measurement and photography was followed by a recognition of the importance of the site and the decision was taken for its preservation. Clearance revealed a problem particularly of a high ground water level and some of the most important f…

The Malham Moor Mines, 1790-1830
The Agricolan fort at Fendoch
Report on excavations in 1936 and 1937. The unusual rectangular form of the fort was dictated by the space available. Features examined included the rampart, ditch and intervallum and the east gateway. All the internal features (principia, praetorium, granaries, barracks, ovens) were examined and evidence was found to suggest that the fort had been deliberately dismantled. Artefacts included an unbroken sword from a foundation trench of the princ…
The Nature and Origin of Coal and Coal Seams
The South Yorkshire Ironmasters (1690-1750)
A Fourteenth Century Regional Survey
The Lynchet Groups of Upper Wharfedale, Yorkshire
The area considered in this study is roughly the drainage of the Wharfe and its tributary the Skirfare, above Burnsall, a typical 'Yorkshire Dale'. The valley is excavated through the Yoredale series of alternating limestones, shales, and sandstones, into the Great Scar Limestone, the lowest member of the Carboniferous series. This lower limestone forms very imposing and massive scars along the valley sides, above which the fells rise in a series…
