the case, however. ~fost moker today 1I e ready-made cigarettes but up until the late

The last fac ory to cease work in the Republic was Hanley's of

\\"aterford, who finally closed in the late '50s, probably c. 1958 or so.

What is also obvious from the lists is that there are strong family associations \\ithin the industry. Jt Belfast the Ilamiltons were

major pla}ers throughout the nineteenth century. In Dublin the

Cwminghams and McLoughlins were pre-eminent. There was intermarriage between them, as mio-ht be expected; the

Cunmnghams of Dublin, for instance, '\'ere married into the

Hamiltons of Belfast. Census returns show that family members

were drafted into the business from a young age. Joume)men

moulders mO"ed from to\\>,11 to town: workers from Galway turn up in \ '\"exford and Waterford, and Scottish pipe-maker worked for

yarious employers from Belfast to Dublin. While there was some

export of pipes abroad. mainly by Hanley's for the most part the

Irish makers were content to supply the hOllle market in spite oj dumping of product on the Irish market, usually by the Scottish

manufacturers; they had the home ad\'antage, plus a strong drh'e on the consumers' part to buy Irish.

Finally, it is noticeable that the makers were often clu tered

together in particular streets or areas, such as Francis Street in

Dublin and the Smithfield area of Belfast. Though servicing a part of

everyday life in the community, they were 'artisan' tradesmen working by and large in poorer areas in ",'hat was little more than a family-run cottaae industry . •

History In the Elizabethan era of the late sixteenth ce tury tobacco was first introduced into Europe from the Americas. With it came the pipe, adopted from the na ive American practice of using pipes on ritual and social occasions. Tobacco as an expensive rarity at this period and the pipes had minute be Is to hold the precious commodity. Smoking initially met with some hos ility and King james I even had tobacco crops destroyed.

As tobacco became more plentiful, the size of the pipe bowls became larger. By the mid-seventeenth century almost every large town and city had a pipe-making industry. After a slight dip in consumption in the eighteen h century owing to Continental wars and the American Mar of Indepe denc€, clay pipe smoking saw a resurgence in the nineteenth century, with large boy Is decorated with all sorts of symbols and inscriptions. Tt es€ included patriotic designs, slogans, advertisements and even records of current celebrity events such as military campaigns.

Sadly, use of the clay pipe was on the decline. By the late nineteenth century the briar and even the expensive meersc aum had replaced it, hile the fragile and easily broken short Scottish 'cutty' and Irish 'duidin' ere seen as a sign of po erty. leir f.inal death-knell was to sound in the early years of he last century, wi h two orld Wars and the rise of the cheap and convenient cigarette being the principal factors in their demise.

Pipes and archaeology Clay pipes~ . ere very easily broken and were immediately discarded, to be replaced by another pipe. This means that they are among the most ubiquitous fi ds from the post-medieval levels on

'.

archaeological excavatio s. By studying the changing style of he bowls and their angle to the stem of the pipe, i is possible to date even the most fragmentary of clay pipe bowls to within a tight c ron%gical framework. This makes clay pipes second only to coins as a dating to()l for the archaeologist on post-medieval sites.

Pipe-makers also indulg.ed in marketing by putting their names on their products. In the earlier pe iods, \' ith smaller pipes, these

ere usual! just initials, sometimes on the rear of the bowl of the pipe facing the smoker, or on the foot of the bowl. By he nineteenth century, however, full names and even addresses were displayed. This is useful for the archaeologist and for economic and social historians because it allows the stUdy of the distribution of a particular maker and even trading links to and from Ireland.

Clay pipes-the industry As previously mentioned, there as a boom in clay pipe production in nineteenth-century Ireland. T e distribution of makers and their familial links, coupled with the locations of the pipe 'factories', makes for interesting social comment.

I is obvious from these lists that the indus ry in the nineteenth century as concentrated in the principal urban centres. Dublin had the most clay pipe manufactories (63), followed by Belfast (34), limerick (19), Derry (1 5), Cork (14) and Wa erford (8).

Provincial centres such as " exford, Drogheda, ewry and Gal\Nay

had four or five makers each, vith a few ope ators in Tralee a d County Tyrone. TI e exception to this is Knockcroghery, a village in Rosco mon hose principal industry was clay pipe-making until it was burnt to the ground by the 'Black and Tans'. Knockcrogherj will be examined in a future article.
