SUMMARY:Stourbridge Group - "History of Stourbridge Glass"
DESCRIPTION:“History of Stourbridge Glass”\n \nA talk by Dr. Kate Round on the history of glass making in Stourbridge \nThe Talk: – History of Stourbridge Glass \nThis talk is a good introduction to the subject of Stourbridge Glass\, and traces the roots of Stourbridge glassmakers back to the 8thC BC\, from The Alabastron of Sargon II to their arrival in Stourbridge. We explore the hot side of the industry\, the workings of our unique glass cones\, and the distinctions between the hot and cold side of the industry. Kate explains how glass is made\, the source of the ingredients and the importance of the canals and associated trades. On to the cold side of the industry we look at the innovations in glass decorating and the skills and fame of local craftsmen including the reproduction of The Portland Vase. This is a fascinating look at how the geology of Stourbridge shaped its history\, its wealth and the health and working lives of its people. \nSpeaker: Dr. Kate Round \nKate is an outreach presenter and tour guide for Dudley Museum Service. \nIn the glass industry\, her interests include the historical development of the industry in the Stourbridge district\, how the geology and geography impacted on the wealth and sociology of the area\, driven by the rivalries of our Glass Dynasties.In her my previous life\,Kate was a research chemist and lecturer\, so understand the chemistry of glass having worked on the synthesis of ‘zeolites’ (silica based materials) with my work published in International Journals. \n

SUMMARY:Stourbridge: Group Visit – Church of St. Mary\, Kingswinford - CANCELLED
DESCRIPTION:Summer Evening Visit to St. Mary’s Church\, Kingswinford\nMargaret Penn will be our host \nThe Parish Church of Kingswinford\, St. Mary’s overlooks the village green where the pound can still be seen and ‘The Old Court House’ where years ago most of the parish business was transacted. This church used to serve a vast parish and has existed since the 12th century and probably even longer. An earlier church may well have stood on the site before the present building. The first vicar of Kingswinford was William in the year1186\, his name and those of his successors are listed on the board midway along the north wall of the church\, in the area of the Lady Chapel. The church was to all intents and purposes closed from 1831 to 1846 for main services due to fears that the building would be endangered by subsidence from planned mining which in fact did not take place since the coal seam was found not to pass underneath the structure. It now serves a much smaller parish. \nPlease note 7 p.m. start for this meeting Tour and refreshments. £4p/h Booking is essential. A booking means Vicky being in receipt of your cheque or cash. \nMeet in the Church Hall behind the church
