Description: | A ceramic vessel sherd of probable Medieval date, about AD 1100 - 1500, probably part of a flared bowl. The sherd is from the rim which would have had a diameter of about 180mm. It is simple, everted and rounded, with a slight groove on the external face at the base of the rim. The wall slopes outwards at about 20 degrees from vertical. The fabric is irregular, hard and is cream to buff coloured throughout. It has frequent, poorly sorted inclusions including grye grit (some large pieces), red possible grog and flecks of black (suggesting coal measures clay). The surfaces are smoothed and are a yellow cream colour with a purple tint. The sherd is 62.9mm wide, 61.6mm high and the wall is 11.4mm thick, 13mm thick at the rim. 64.6g.
