Description: | Late Early Medieval to Medieval ceramic vessel body sherd with some abrasion. The unglazed gritty oxidised pale buff fabric can be scratched with a pin but not a thumbnail. The fabric has a number of inclusions and occasional voids, both mostly less than 1mm in size. The sherd has been shaped by pushing a thumb out from the interior to produce a rounded ridge. Either side of the ridge has been decorated with a series of cord impressed diagonals (each approximately 6mm x 2mm) set at an acute angle on either side of the rib. Dates from c850 to c1400 AD, most likely 11th or 12th century.The length is 24mm, width 16mm, thickness 4.5mm, and the weight 2.06g.
