Description: | A fragment of grey lava quern stone of possible Roman or later date, probably imported from the Rhine. The fragment is roughly rectangular in form, terminating on all sides in old breaks. Towards one narrow edge it has an expanded rim(?) that gives the entire fragment a sub-triangular profile. The interior grinding surface is relatively smooth with no evidence for ridges or similar. It measures 80.42mm in length, 65.09mm in width, 29.01mm in thickness and 178.51g in weight. This quern is possibly of Roman date, although a later, Medieval, date cannot immediately be ruled out.
