Description: | Two sherds of hand-made pottery of Middle Bronze Age date. The two undiagnostic body sherds have orangey brown oxidised exteriors and reduced brown grey interiors. One of the sherds exhibits a slightly brighter orange surface and a burnt interior. The clay matrix for these sherds contains a moderate to common (25-30%) amount of very well-sorted sub-rounded quartz grains measuring less than 0.25mm. There are also rare amounts of sub-rounded and well-sorted red and black iron oxides measuring less than 0.5mm. The fabric has been tempered with a common amount (30%) of sub-angular well-sorted calcined flint measuring between 0.25mm and 2mm. There are also rare larger flints measuring less than 5mm.
