Description: | Fifteen body sherds, one base sherd and three rim sherds from miscellaneous oxidised sand tempered wares from various sources dating to the later 13th and 14th centuries. The fabrics range form pale orange through mid oranges and greys to dark grey. Two body sherds are glazed on the inner side with pale-mid olive glaze. The base sherd comes from a flat based pot with walls rising at almost 90 degrees, bowing out only slightly, it is internally glazed with a pale olive to clear glaze; it is too small to estimate the diameter. The rims are mixed, one is from a shallow plate or bowl with the edge curving up to meet the rim at 90 degrees, the rim is flattened extended outwards and slightly inwards with a rounded outer side, it is too small to estimate the diameter. The second flares out at 45 degrees with a squared outer edge and 90 degree angle along the top, there is a slight step on the inner side marking the lower edge of the rim while the outer side is smooth, estimated external diametr is c.220mm. The last comes from a closed vessel with an upper part which is curving inwards, the rim has a widened and flattened, slightly concave top edge and a narrow, projecting, slightly downward curved band on the outer side, it is too small to estimate the diameter.The pieces mostly have abraded or very abraded breaks with one or two fresher breaks. They all have slightly abraded breaks. 144 grams in total. | Publisher: | http://finds.org.uk | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://finds.org.uk/database/artefacts/r... | Go to resource |
