Description: | A shard from the base of an Oxfordshire Ware vessel. Around half of the base survives. The fabric is orange-buff in colour with sparse sub-angular iron ore inclusions varying widely in size and sparse large chalk lumps set in a micaceous matrix. Dark red-brown slip decorates the outer surface. However, this is heavily abraded and missing in places. Some of surviving slip shows a slight sheen on a few small patches. The base has straight, angled sides and a hole in the centre of the bottom. It would have been quite tall. The lack of further fragments makes it difficult to determine the original form of the vessel.
Diameter: 40.33mm, Thickness: 20.37mm
