Description: | Three sherds of ceramic vessel probably dating from the Medieval or Post Medieval period. Each sherd is different.The first is a wall sherd of hard, laminated fabric which is a pale pink colour. There are frequent very small grey inclusions, and a white slip on both faces. No glaze survives over the slip, but there is a splash of clear glaze on one of the broken edges. This suggests that the pot broken in the kiln and glaze then dripped onto the break during the firing process. The sherd is 44.75mm long, 27.3mm wide and 6.44mm thick.It weighs 7.96g.The second is a wall sherd of hard, irregular orange fabric, smoothed on the inside and rough on the outer face. It has infrequent grey inclusions, and sand on the outer face. It is 39.7mm long, 28.95mm wide and 14.27mm thick. It weighs 20.96g.The last sherd is a wall sherd of soft, fine fabric which is a warm yellowish tan colour throughout. It has sparse inclusions of quartzite, red grog, grey particles and some mica. It is 66.11mm long, 42mm wide and 15.03mm thick. It weighs 40.06g.
