Description: | Post Medieval ceramic vessel base sherd of reduced fabric has a buff exterior face and a pale grey interior face. It can be scratched with a pin. It has covering olive green glaze with manganese or iron spots internally. Externally the wall has a nearly covering thin near transparent glaze which extends partially to the bottom of the base. The bottom of the base also has a number of grass impressions, probably from when the freshly potted vessels were put out to dry prior to initial firing. The fabric has a number of inclusions and occasional voids (some up to 3mm), both mostly less than 1mm in size. The sherd probably dates from c1500 to c1800 AD. The length is 45mm, width 41mm, thickness 29mm, and the weight 35.06g.
