    Transferware Database of Patterns and Sources

    Transferware Database of Patterns and Sources Pattern #4864 Pattern Name: Roman #01 Center Pattern Border Alternate Names: Greek Pattern, Kirk Series Category: Literature and the Performing Arts / Mythology Border: Miscellaneous / Classical themes / Decorative panels Additional Information: Plate, 9.5 inches. Two sections of the border are shown. Priestman2001, pp. 114-119, identifies a series of patterns on tablewares that Minton was producing by 1810, based on the engravings of Thomas Kirk that had been used to illustrate a catalogue of the collection of ancient Greek, Roman and Etruscan vases that had been put together by the British diplomat Sir William Hamilton in the latter half of the 18thC. Minton called them the Roman patterns, though the characters portrayed were not all Roman nor were the vases from which the drawings were taken all of Roman origin. The patterns have also been referred to as the Kirk series, after the artist and engraver. The pattern shown here is based on plate 54 in Kirk1804. The pattern and the source print are illustrated on p. 117 of Priestman2001, but no indication is given of what the scene represents. A circular cartouche containing various freemasonry symbols has been added to the central design, suggesting that the plate may have been part of a special order from Freemasons' Lodge. See also CoyshHenrywood1989, pp120-121, for a description of this series (here named Kirk series)and illustrations, including one of this pattern. Moore2010, pp. 120-121, illustrates the Kirk drawing and one from Tischbein, pl. 9, Vol. I in connection with a Spode pattern called 'Apollo Seated on a Winged Chair".

  • Industrial Heritage, Tourism and Old Industrial Buildings: Charting the Difficult Path from Redundancy to Heritage Attraction

    Industrial Heritage, Tourism and Old Industrial Buildings: Charting the Difficult Path from Redundancy to Heritage Attraction

    RESEARCH Cutting Edge 1997 Industrial heritage, tourism and old industrial buildings: charting the difficult path from redundancy to heritage attraction Rick Ball, Staffordshire University ISBN 0-85406-864-3 INDUSTRIAL HERITAGE, TOURISM AND OLD INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS: CHARTING THE DIFFICULT PATH FROM REDUNDANCY TO HERITAGE ATTRACTION Dr. Rick Ball Division of Geography Staffordshire University Leek Road Stoke-on-Trent ST4 2DF UK Abstract This exploratory paper considers the processes, problems and constraints involved in the transition of old industrial buildings, often those prone to vacancy, into heritage and tourism- linked uses. It discusses the heritage-property nexus with regard to industrial buildings, and builds an empirical picture of such relationships in a specific local property arena. The discussion is partly based on research projects completed in a number of localities within the British West Midlands. In particular, it draws on work on the evaluation of European Commission Community Initiatives in the West Midlands that have targetted tourism development, as well as on EPSRC funded research focused on vacant industrial buildings in Stoke-on-Trent. As such, in scene-setting style, a structure is developed for the evaluation of heritage-property links with the emphasis on the small number of specific local projects that have at least partly sought to bring buildings back into use with some, perhaps extensive, degree of heritage activity in mind. 1. Heritage and the property domain - some introductory comments The background to this paper is the apparent reassertion of industrial heritage as a flavour of tourism in the late 1990s (Goodall, 1996), a process pursued with vigour in the quest for the renaissance of the urban industrial economy (see Ball and Stobart, 1996).

    MH Shrews Folk Fest Beer Brochure 6-8-17_Layout 1 08/08/2017 22:13 Page 1 2017 Beer and Cider Brochure It's a great pleasure to return to Shrewsbury Folk Festival for our third year and a big thank you to Sandra for inviting us back again. Like many at the festival I will miss Alan this year following his recent passing but I'm pretty sure he'll be keeping an eye on things, wherever he is, to make sure we've still got his favourite malt whisky in stock! This year we have kept many of your favourite beers and ciders but have made some changes to give you some new variety. We will be offering 45 different cask ales across the weekend, a quarter of which are different from last year. After a small trial last year we are extending our craft keg range, available in the main bar. I am particularly pleased to have some beers available from the genius hand of Ken King of local Chapel Brewery, but be quick as stocks are limited on these. For lovers of more fizzy stuff, we are pleased to be working with Kingstone Press Cider, Warsteiner and Kaltenberg. Kingstone Press will once again be sponsoring The Folk Slam, the rousing finale to the festival on the Pengwern stage. Other new brewers include Purity, which is supporting the Village Stage this year, and we say a welcome return to The Shropshire Brewery after an absence last year. Also watch out for great wines, a new range of cocktails, Prosecco (obviously!) and loads of gin at our wine bar this year.
