Table of ContentsReviewsAuthor InformationPeter Francis was working as a petroleum geologist in 1982 when he received a letter from Frank Britton seeking information on Carrickfergus delftware clay. From this simple request began a ten year search that not only revealed the source of the clay, but the fact that three fine quality potteries had worked in Belfast during the 18th century. Following a new career in post-medieval archaeology Peter Francis has now firmly established himself as an innovative researcher. He is a Wingate Scholar and Honorary Fellow at the Institute of Irish Studies, the Queen's University of Belfast. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
