Penny Crook's research interests include 19th-century material culture, assemblage analysis, consumer studies, urban archaeology and digital data management. She pioneered the examination of quality in historical archaeological assemblage analysis as part of her doctoral research (completed in 2008) and conducted price and linguistic analysis of data from 19th-century store catalogues. In 2014 she commenced a DECRA fellowship to extend the quality research framework and re-examine the role of consumption in colonial Sydney using archaeological assemblages.
