A Late Bronze Age vessel of the Post-Deverel-Rimbury 'Plainware' group dating prior to 800 BC. This vessel was hand-made and the fabric is dark grey and includes large, irregular fragments of flint. The vessel is thin-walled, well-finished and with a characteristically internally-bevelled rim. The inner surface appears to have been wiped using a material like cloth or straw.
