The Glass Industry of the Weald, by G. H. Kenyon, published 1967 (231 pp., Leicester: Leicester University Press) accessible at: W.S.R.O. [Lib 2545] & The Keep [LIB/502219] & West Sussex Libraries & East Sussex Libraries
Review by I. D. M. [I. D. Margary] in Sussex Notes and Queries, November 1967:The medieval glass-making industry was a closely localised one centred upon Chiddingfold and Wisborough Green, on the Surrey-Sussex border, in a remote and densely forested region on heavy clay. The use of the timber for fuel may have attracted it. Two main types of glass have been distinguished: 'Early' from 14th to mid-16th Century, and 'Late,' better, glass under the leadership of the Frenchman Jean Carré, 1567-1618, after which the industry migrated to coal areas.
It was investigated first by Rev. T. S. Cooper, of Chiddingfold, about 1900, and then by S. E. Winbolt whose 'Wealden Glass' is the only book hitherto published (1933) about the industry. This book was largely a reprinting of articles in the old 'Sussex County Magazine' and later work, in which Kenyon had taken a leading part, since he lived close by in Kirdford, showed the need for a more detailed study. This we now have in this thorough, well-balanced and interesting volume.
Chapters give an account of the early history, raw materials used, the structures and furnaces (only very fragmentary remains appear for the buildings were mere shacks), types of glass made, the administration of the industry and its marketing, and extensive notes on the glass-making families. There follows a detailed schedule and description of all the 42 sites at present known in the area, also of a few in other parts of Sussex and elsewhere in England.
The book has been very well produced by printers at Aylesbury for the Leicester University Press, with commendable accuracy. There were good reasons, no doubt, for going so far afield for this. The plates are clear and those showing the old industry working are most interesting, but they are all segregated in a bunch. There is a useful index.
