Description: | Postmedieval pottery sherd. The sherd is part of a storage jar dating from the 16th - 17th century AD (1500's to 1600's AD). The sherd is from the rim of the jar, which has a thumbed strip running along the exterior for decoration; some of the handle is still intact. Brown glaze is visible on the interior of the vessel. The micaceous inclusions suggest the pottery is local Totnes type ware; this storage jar was possibly made at Bridgetown Pomeroy, near Totnes, where wasters of the same type of pottery have been found. (John Allan, pers comm, October 2011).
