Description: | A thin walled body sherd of earthenware (probably Severn Valley Ware) pottery probably either dating to the late Roman (150 - 410 AD) or the Medieval Period (1200 - 1500). The sherd is very worn and abraded and is probably from the body of a storage jar. The fabric is relatively soft and powdery with a number of angular and sub angular quartz and brown coloured ironstone inclusions. The fabric colour is a mid buff orange and the outer colour is a darker mid orange. Due to the smallness of the sherd the diameter of the vessel cannot be estimated. It measures 16.8mm x 23.8mm x 6.2mm and weighs 2.21 grams.
