Description: | Pottery rim sherd from a bowl (approximately 180 mm in diameter) with rounded everted rim and copper green glaze on both external surfaces. The fabric has an oxidised bright orange surface and a reduced grey core with quartz and gravel inclusions. The colour and texture of the fabric and the lack of local inclusions suggest that it is North Devon Barnstable ware dating to the 18th century.
Weddell (1981) illustrates a similar bowl on page 131, Fig.8, No.3A, which is dated to c.1780-1840. | 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: | 1740
