Description: | An rim sherd from a glazed medieval vessel, possibly a jar or similar (c. 1200 - c. 1425 AD). It has an trapezoidal shape and is everted in profile towards the rim, which itself is flared externally and expanded slightly internally (Th.: up to 10.4mm). In plan the ?rim is gradually curved. Below the rim is a zone decorated with impressed diagonal marks in a row. Below this the top part of the vessel curves out in an external lipped ridge; the body of the vessel continues downwards, narrowing from this point which represents the location of an old break. The fabric is fine and sandy. The surfaces of the sherd are light orange. The external glaze a mid green-yellow colour.
