Abstract
Since the topic of the sash-window was last addressed in this journal fourteen years ago by one of the authors it has had a surprisingly high public profile. Apart from the ongoing English Heritage and Georgian Group campaigns to promote the use and preservation of traditional sash-windows in historic buildings, several conservation courses in the country now provide for the study of the historic building crafts and their products, including wooden windows. In the Brooking Collection, based at Greenwich University, researchers and conservation practitioners have a valuable reference point for studying the development of historic building components in Britain. Sash-windows constitute the largest and most interesting part of this collection and have been the subject of successful touring exhibitions.
