Abstract:
Considerable physical and documentary evidence survives to show that frameworks designed to support cuts of meat or fish during the smoking process were being inserted into Scottish chimneys in the late sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The Scottish situation is described in the hope that it might stimulate research into hanging chimneys in England and elsewhere.Document Type: Research article
