Description: | Fragment of the corner of the wider face of a box-flue tile (of Roman date. Length 118mm, width 110mm and 20mm thick. Weight The fragment is decorated with two bands of converging combing and the area between these two bands is also combed. The combed impressions have been produced with a comb with at least seven teeth. Assuming that the combed pattern was symmetrical, it can be estimated that the width of the box-flue would have been about 240mm. The tile has been slightly ?rolled? by the mobile activity on a shingle bank within the inter-tidal zone, where the tile was a surface find. The breaks are abraded and all the surfaces have sparsely distributed barnacle settlement. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | Frank Basford | Identifier: | http://www.finds.org.uk/database/artefac... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | text/html | Go to resource |
