THE IDENTIFICATION OF SLAGS AND RESIDUES FROM DGLA SITES NATIONAL GALLERY AND PEABODY, LONDON.

Author(s): J G McDonnell

The slags and residues from these excavations were examined. The ironworking slags on the Peabody site were concentrated in the Saxon and dark earth contexts, in sufficient quantity to suggest that blacksmithing had been carried out close to the site. There were small deposits of slag in Saxon and 10-12th century contexts on the National Gallery site.
