Older women's reduced contact with food in the Changes Around Food Experience (Cafe) study
Many older women reduce the amount of cooking and food preparation they do in later life. While cooking may be seen as traditionally associated with women's family roles, little is known about the impact of such reduced engagement with food on their lives. This paper presents the findings from a one-year qualitative study (Changes Around Food Experience, CAFE) of the impact of reduced contact with preparing and cooking meals from scratch for 40 w…
Early stone emplacement in three Scottish ecclesiastical national monuments
The stonework at three well-known Scottish ecclesiastical buildings has been examined in detail. In each, the orientation of the bedding layers in individual stones in certain quoins and arch jambs, and in two instances the wall faces, indicate when these buildings were first erected. In England, the period of construction would have been described as Anglo-Saxon; in this paper the work is referred to as being of 'Patterned' style. On this eviden…
Stone emplacement in early Scottish churches
Although it has become customary to suggest that the first stone ecclesiastical buildings in Scotland date from the earliest 12th century, this examination of stone emplacement indicates that English Saxon-style craftsmanship is evident in a number of early Scottish churches. It seems probable that, as in England, pre-Norman Conquest masons in Scotland chose to emplace many of their stones, in structures like quoins and jambs, with the bedding or…
A Technique for Distinguishing the Textures of Bricks and Tiles
A simple, relatively non-destructive technique is described which can be used to distinguish between the fabrics and textures of different bricks and tiles. Its use should help to prevent the continued confusion that exists in the identification of different kiln-based clay products in the field

Church building fabrics on Romney Marsh and the Marshland Fringe
Romney Marsh is a region where few historic buildings now remain in the modern landscape. This paper examines the only group of historic monuments on the marsh in which stone was the principal medium, and where it was employed on a major scale—the parish church. A fieldwork programme determined the types of stone present in eighteen churches on Romney and Walland Marsh, and a further eighteen in the immediate upland hinterland. The objectives of …

The London Basin's gravel churches
Ferruginously-cemented gravels, sandy-gravels and sands, quarried originally from superficial, fluvial, fluvioglacial and glacial deposits, form an important building constituent of early London Basin churches. Their occurrence in the various churches relates very closely to the recognised geographical distribution of the respective, parent geological bodies. Similarly, clast compositions in the gravels of the different church fabrics reflect the…

Obituary
Iron Working in the Vicinity of Weybridge, Surrey
The presence of eighteenth-century iron working mills and the coincidental local, but limited, source of iron in the Weybridge area of Surrey, has led a number of authors to suggest that these mills smelted locally extracted iron ore. The present author has described elsewhere the occurrence of the ore and indicated that extraction was in pre-mediaeval times, probably during the Iron Age. In further support of this theory, the original records of…
