Object type certainty: Certain
Workflow status: Awaiting validation

A sherd of a Post Medieval ceramic vessel probably dating from 1550 - 1700 AD. It is a rim sherd with a rim diameter of about 13cm. The fabric is very hard and quite fine; creamy buff throughout but fading to tan on the outer face, and with few visible inclusions, just sparse tiny flecks of mica. It is glazed on the inside with a lustrous clear to yellow glaze. The rim is stepped to provide a seating for a lid. The fabric seems similar to Earlier Wrenthorpe Yellow Ware.
