Description: | Sherd from late Iron Age to early Roman pottery vessel, possibly a cooking pot. It consists of part of the rim and a small section of the upper body of the pot. The rim is simple in form. It has a rounded top and does not protrude from the body of the vessel. Beneath the rim the side of the pot angles outwards, suggesting that the body of the pot was wider than the rim. The fabric is a light pinkish-orange in colour and is tempered with grog and sand. The edges are abraided. It measures 25mm long, by 23.7mm high and 9mm thick. Weight = 7.82g. The wide curvature of the rim indicates that the vessel from which the sherd originated was between 300 and 400mm in diameter.
