Description: | A ceramic vessel rim sherd of Roman date. The fabric has a pale grey/off-white coloured core and a dark grey to black surface. This sherd is definitely not a Nene Valley colour coat ware but might be from a Nene Valley grey ware vessel. The vessel seems to have been of an open vessel form such as a bowl or dish. The rim has a thickness of 10.63mm. The sherd has a maximum length of 35.59mm and width (from rim edge to break) of 20.33mm. The body of the vessel sherd is 5.20mm thick. The sherd weighs 7.72g. All surfaces and broken edges have dried mud adhering in places. Use of a rim chart suggests that the vessel originally had a diameter of 200mm and that the sherd represents c.6% of the total circumference.
