ASSESSMENT OF POTENTIAL FOR TECHNOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF GLASSWORKING DEBRIS FROM LITTLE BIRCHES, WOLSELEY (STAFFORDSHIRE), 1991

Author(s): C Mortimer

Twenty samples of glass and glassmaking waste were analysed quantitatively. The majority of the material dates to the 16th century, but glass from a crucible fragment associated with a 14th century furnace was also investigated. All the glass analysed is potash glass with a high magnesia content. Directions of future research are outlined.
