Gun-founding in the Weald

Advertisement

Talk by Jeremy Hodgkinson
From the late 15th century, when the blast furnace was introduced into the Weald from the Continent, gun-founding became a speciality of some of the region’s furnaces. The talk traces this development, describing the technology and the personalities involved in a trade in which the Weald was prominent until the 1760s.
