Description: | A pottery sherd from the wall of a Post-Medieval to Modern vessel. This sherd is probably from an English stoneware vessel, perhaps with a saltglaze on the exterior, and of 18th-19th century AD date. The exterior surface has unusual impressed decoration in the form of two parallel grooves at the top(?) beneath which are four wavy parallel lines formed from numerous small impressed rectangles, perhaps created by an implement such as a pastry jigger that would have enabled the decoration to be rolled onto the surface. The entire object has been excessively heated and shows signs of vitrification. It measures 66.87mm in width, 45.11mm in height, 7.97mm in thickness, and weighs 24.84g.
