Description: | Body sherd from a pottery vessel of probable Roman date. The sherd is likely to be from a relatively thin walled burnished vessel; not enough survives to suggest the overall size or form; but the fine nature of the vessel would suggest tableware rather than storage. The fabric is a hard earthen ware which is mica rich, having abundant angular and sub-angular white quartz, coal measure stone and sparse mid cream coloured limestone inclusions. The fabric is a mid grey, black colour the outside surface is abraded. No decoration is present.The sherd measures 32.0mm length, 48.4mm width is 3.5mm thick and weighs 7.67 grams.
