Scientific Examination of Glass and Glassworking Materials from Three Sites in the Weald (Surrey and Sussex)
Author(s): David Dungworth
This report summarises the analysis of glassworking waste from three sites in the Weald: Imbhams Farm, Glasshouse Lane and Lordings Farm. The glassworking remains were excavated between 2013 and 2014 by the Surrey County Archaeological Unit (SCAU) as part of the Wealden Glass Industry Project (Pr5299), which is supported and funded by Historic England (and previously English Heritage). The sites date to the 16th and 17th centuries. The assemblages of glass, crucibles and furnace remains were analysed using SEM-EDS and XRF at the laboratories at Fort Cumberland.
