Description: | Pottery rim sherd with a rounded rim from a vessel with a diameter of approximately 320 mm. There are the remains of the toffee-coloured lead glaze within the groove on the interior surface of the rim. The fabric has oxidised to a bright orange colour on the exterior and reduced to a pale grey in the interior, with gravel and quartz inclusions. The colour and texture of the fabric with its inclusions suggest that it is North Devon Barnstable ware dating to the 17th century.Weddell (1981) illustrates a similar bowl on page 131, Fig.8, No.3D, which is dated to c.1650-1700.
