Description: | A fragment of a ceramic vessel of Medieval date (AD 1250-1325). The fragment is from the body of a wheel thrown vessel from a large storage jar, the sherd tapered slightly from one end to the other, suggesting that this is the lower part of a walled-vessel, a short distance from the base. The fabric of the sherd is dark grey on the interior surfaces, oxidising rapidly to the core and exterior surfaces which are dark orange. The sherd has an interior slip of pale yellow to green in colour with some mottled brown flecks. The colour and temper (with a lack of copper in the glaze are suggestive of Red Sandy Ware.
