A sherd from a ceramic vessel of Post Medieval date. The sherd is a base sherd from a small vessel. The base is beaded. The fabric is hard, a yellow cream colour and the breaks are fine. There are sparse grey inclusions which are very small. Both faces are glazed, with a clear glaze on the outside with a stripe of thick brown, and the inside has a mottled brown and yellow glaze which has pooled in the base. The vessel is probably 17th or 18th century in date.
