Description: | Five early Iron Age pottery sherds (800-300BC). The group includes one rim and four body sherds. Two of the body sherds conjoin and have a sharp carination; this is either at the shoulder or part of the base. The sherds are black and have been fired in a reduced atmosphere. The fabric has frequent ill-sorted flint temper with sparse mica inclusions. The rim sherd is from a vessel with an everted rim that has a square profile. This sherd has a different fabric to the others. The surface is mottled red and black, suggesting a partially oxidised firing. The matrix is dark grey with frequent flint and mica inclusions that have been sorted.Dimensions: total weight: 65.73g
