Three rim sherds, probably of tankards or bowls. The body of the vessel is straight. The sherds are of the same oxidised fabric. The fabric has a mid grey core and orange coloured surfaces. It is quite soft with powdery surfaces. The sherds weigh 30g. The fabric is probably Severn Valley Ware. It probably dates to the 1st to 4th centuries (Webster, P 1976 'Severn Valley Ware: A Preliminary Study' Transactions of the Bristol and Gloucestershire Archaeological Society Vol. 94).
