All sherds were found within the same findspot vicinity and so are listed here in a single record.Group 1: Series of ten Roman grey ware sherds, including: six rim sherds, two body sherds, one base sherd and a small fragment from a thumbed storage jar. The majority have been identified as specifically Rowlands Castle Ware (Hampshire), dating from the late 1st to 3rd century AD. Representative sample of a total of 55 grey ware sherds found within the same findspot area. No collective weight available.Group 2: A single rim sherd of a Roman colour-coated beaker, probably of the Colchester type, dating to the 2nd century AD. The sherd is slipped black on both surfaces but an orange vessel surface underneath has been exposed on the sherd through abrasion.
