HISTORIC IRONWORK REPAIRS IN TIMBER-FRAMED BUILDINGS.

Appendix 2.

Salzman in his Building in Britain down to 1540. Gives a comprehensive account of the availability and, where known, the cost of nails from the early 13^th century to the mid 16^th century. These have been transcribed into a database and are here presented in date order.

Where quantities are given, Salzman leads us to assume that the long hundred of 120 and the long thousand of 1200 are being used. These are denoted by h and th in the text.

Where prices are given these are in £ pounds, s shillings and d pence. Weights are in lbs pounds.

The table is presented firstly to indicate the huge range of terms that were applied to nails and secondly to indicate their ease of availability and the large numbers stored and purchased.
