19 The writers thank Fru Elizabeth Munksgaard and Dr David Liversage, for assistance at the National Museum of Denmark, and Dr James Graham-Campbell for his continued interest and encouragement. Cataloguing of the silverwork at the National Museum of Ireland was undertaken courtesy of Dr Michael Ryan, Keeper of Irish Antiquities. The Plunkett drawings were examined in Copenhagen by one of us (C.S.B.) while undertaking long-term research into the life and work of J. J. A. Worsaae. Grateful acknowledgement is made of financial support from the William Lambarde Research Fund, administered through the Society of Antiquaries of London, which made that research possible.
