Description: | PAS-RC07Grid C9Four sherds of Severn Valley courseware pottery of Roman date (c. AD 50-410).The fabric, colour and thickness of the four sherds differs which suggests that they are not all from the same vessel. Unfortunately due to the small size of both sherds it has not been possible to determine the shape and style of the original vessels. The smaller three sherds are irregular in plan with a sub-rectangular cross-section. The larger sherd is broadly rectangular in plan with a rectangular cross-section. The inner surface is curved, and the outer surface flat which suggests that this may be a base sherd from a cooking pot or jug. The fabric of all sherds is soft earthenware with angular and -sub-angular inclusions of black grit and quartz. The fabrics are all mica rich. The colour of the four sherds is a uniform mid-orange.The largest sherd measures 40.7mm in length, 24.2mm in width, 12.8mm thick and weighs 13.4g.The smallest sherd measures 14.0mm in length, 8.7mm in width, 5.6mm thick and weighs 0.9g.The bulk weight is 15.7g
