Description: | Two fragments of curved Roman roof tile (imbrex) recovered during a fieldwalking exercise on the site of a known Roman villa. The larger piece measures 112.5mm long by 81.5mm wide and 16.8mm thick. The fabric is mid-orange in colour and is tempered with crushed shell. It weighs 217.22g. The smaller piece is 84.8mm long by 58.4mm wide and 13.8mm thick. It weighs 98.25g. Unlike the smaller piece, no shell inclusions are visible and, instead, small stones and grog appear to have been used as temper. The edges of both pieces are slightly abraded. | Subjects: | Imbrex | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Watters, Julian - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
