Description: | A fragmented sherd possibly from the lid of a vessel of the Surrey/Hants border white ware, dating to the 14th or 15th century AD. The sherd is convexed and has circumferential ridges running around the exterior as decoration, glazed with a mottled-green glaze. The lid is also glazed internally and an internal flange set back from the outer rim probably ensured a close fit into the neck of a lid-seated cooking pot. The fabric has a buff core with a whiter outer and frequent small iron fleck inclusions. No direct comparision for this vessel lid could be found in the literature but a number of similar lids made in the Kingston-type ware are recorded and it is likely that the vessel lid is an example of this.
