Description: | Rim sherd of a ceramic coarse-ware vessel of Medieval, thirteenth or fourteenth century date (AD 1200 ? AD 1400). Length 43mm, width 98mm and a maximum thickness of 9mm. Weight 44.43g. The sherd has an everted rim with an external bevel that is angled downwards and outwards from the top of the rim. On the top inside of the rim is a circumferential groove. The matrix of the fabric is reddish yellow (Munsell Color 7.5YR 6/6) and is heavily tempered with rounded sand and a small quantity of angular flint. When complete, the external diameter of the rim would have been about 20cm. A small associated body sherd of identical colour and tempering was found close to the rim sherd. The breaks on both sherds appear to be old. | 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 | Temporal: | 1200
