This book is the first to collect an amazing variety of excavated furniture and artifacts from medieval London houses. These include roofing and other structural elements, decorative fixtures and fittings, and an assortment of cookware, writing instruments, toys and scales. Illustrating around 1,000 items, the catalogue provides a fascinating account of how trends in metalwork and glass production changed during the period covered, while the close dating of many finds led to many new ideas emerging at the time.
