	Industrial archaeology of Dartmoor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The industrial archaeology of Dartmoor covers a number of the industries which have, over the ages, occurred on Dartmoor, and the remaining evidence surrounding them.
		Currently only a few industries are economically significant, yet all three will inevitably leave their own traces on the moor: china clay mining, farming and tourism.
		A good general guide to the commercial activities on Dartmoor at the end of the 19th century is William Crossing's The Dartmoor Worker.

	Industrial Archaeology
		Industrial archaeology is the recording, study, interpretation and preservation of the physical remains of industrially related artifacts, sites and systems within their social and historical contexts.
		Its subject matter covers the industrial spectrum from bridges to factories to waterpower canals to railroads to flour mills to blast furnaces to mines to dams to workers' housing to name a few.
		The study of Industrial Archaeology adds to our understanding of this significant change in the human condition by adding a tangible dimension to technical studies, by providing technical information on obsolete processes not obtainable from other sources, and by supplying useful reference points of economic growth and social change.
