Description: | A rim sherd from a Roman greyware vessel, probably a storage jar dating from AD 43 - 410. It has an everted rim with a rounded top. There is no seating for a lid, though a simple lid could still be rested in the upper neck. The vessel had a rim diameter of about 300mm. The fabric is fairly soft, fine textured and is light grey throughout. It has infrequent rounded quartz inclusions and frequent dark grey to black flecks (perhaps suggesting coal measures clay). The sherd is 90.2mm long, 37.5mm tall and 28.1mm thick. The wall is 10-11mm thick. 80.47g.
