The bowl has an oval foot and a decorative milled band around the edge. There are a series of cut marks done post firing across the bowl and the foot; they do not form a discernable pattern. There is some faint evidence of burning on the internal surfaces of the bowl.Jacqui Pearce notes: "I can see no discernible pattern in the marks so why someone should wish to make them remains a mystery."Dimensions: length: 54.31mm; internal diameter of bowl: 8.83mm; weight: 8.96g.Identification by Jacqui Pearce, Museum of London Archaeology Specialist Services, Medieval pottery specialist.
