The Landscape of Industry is an integrated study which establishes a method for the analysis of complex industrial landscapes. Based on a study of the Ironbridge Gorge, the authors consider a range of material evidence, combining archaeological appraisal of the landscape with analysis of its characteristic settlement patterns and built forms. The authors consider the shifting relationship between landscape and industry. Industrialisation is itself shaped and constrained by the landscape in which it occurs, and the authors consider the interaction of environment and industry as the accumulation of an inheritance which in each generation influences the course and content of future development. The Landscape of Industry sets the agenda both for further study and for the integrated management of landscape resources.

Judith Alfrey is a building historian who now works as a historic buildings consultant. She is co-author (with Tim Putnam) of The Industrial Heritage (Routledge 1992). Catherine Clark is Inspector of Ancient Monuments with English Heritage and formerly Conservation Officer with the Council for British Archaeology.
