Description: | Three abraded sherds of earthenware pottery probably dating to the later Medieval period (1350 ? 1550). Two of the three sherds are glazed and one of these seems to have been dipped in a white slip as well as being glazed. The glaze in both cases is a light green colour and is probably a very decayed ?Tudor? green glaze. All three sherds are probably from domestic pottery types such as jars or flagons. The fabric of all three sherds is hard and only one sherd exhibits two tone (grey inner and orange outer) colours. There are a number of angular and sub angular quartz, broken pottery and rounded frequent burnt organic (charcoal) inclusions. The outer and inner surface is a light brown orange colour. Due to the smallness of the sherds the diameter of the vessel cannot be estimated. The largest sherd measures 29mm x 33mm x 8.6mm; the smallest measures 29mm x 16.4mm x 6.7mm. The total weight of all three sherds is 15.8 grams | 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: | 1350
