A body sherd of a ceramic vessel of likely Iron Age to Roman date (c. 800 BC - AD 400). The sherd is roughly trapezoidal in plan, with a width of around 57.53mm near the top and expanding to 61.84mm wide towards the bottom. The object changes from being 78.01mm long on the left hand side to 95.94mm long on the right hand side. The thickness of the sherd changes from 14.77mm thick near the top to 19.75mm near the bottom. The exterior surface is decorated with five oblique grooves at the top, with four being more prominent. The fabr…

A body sherd from a ceramic vessel of Iron Age to Roman date (c. 500 BC - AD 100). The sherd is shaped like an irregular pentagon in plan. The sherd is 31.71mm wide at the very top, expanding to 37.72mm wide towards the centre. This expansion is mainly due to the right hand side of the sherd widening, whilst the left hand side slants inwards at an angle, causing this initial section of the sherd to have a parallelogram like shape. The sherd narrows slightly to 35.48mm wide, before tapering to a rounded point at the bottom, though with a greater degree of tapering on the left hand side…

A fragment of fired clay. It cannot be easily identified, but it is potentially part of an Iron Age oven lid. The fragment is roughly triangular in shape. The texture is relatively rough. The core and margins are reddish orange with some streaks of greyish brown. The external surface is lighter orange, whilst the internal surface is a light brown. The fabric contains a moderate density of quartz inclusions and black inclusions (<1.00mm).

Two possibly ceramic rim sherds and a body sherd from a vessel, potentially from Iron Age in date. All three appear to be from the same vessel. There are signs of older breakages along the surfaces of the fragments. The core is black, and the surfaces are grey. The fabric has a rough feel and contains abundant quartz inclusions and abundant white calcareous inclusions (>1.00mm in length). The sherds consist of a roughly trapezium shaped sherd (1), a sherd shaped roughly like a parallelogram (2), and a smaller roughly rectangular sherd (3). The diameters are outlined bel…

A ceramic body sherd from a vessel, potentially Iron Age in date. The sherd is roughly shaped like an irregular hexagon and seems to have been handmade due to the rough, uneven nature of the surface. Along the external surface, there is an incision 21.78mm long going from left to right. The sherd starts off 8.65mm thick at the top, before a sudden drop off along a diagonal line on the interior surface of the sherd. The diagonal line begins around 25.35mm down on the right-hand side and continues to 29.75mm down on the left-hand side. The thickness then drops to 7.82mm and gradual…

A ceramic body sherd from a vessel, potentially Iron Age in date. The sherd is roughly trapezium shaped and seems to have been handmade due to the rough nature of the surface. The core colour is variegated, with some sections being orange and others being grey or black. The surface is largely brown, but with some dark grey and black sections. The fabric seems to include sparse mica inclusions, as well as sparse quartz inclusions.

The core ranges largely from dark grey to black, whilst the margin is largely dark grey or orange. The surfaces are largely brown with some bits of black. The fabric seems to include frequent mica inclusions on the external surface, whilst there are moderate inclusions of mica in the core.

A ceramic body sherd from a vessel. It has a triangular shape. The core and interior surface are brown whilst the exterior surface is predominantly black. The fabric includes sparse, calcareous material and sparse, clay pellets, both of which are <1mm in size. The interior surface seems relatively rougher compared to the exterior surface, which would suggest that it could be hand made. Potentially from the Iron Age.

An irregular pentagonal carination sherd of what is likely part of an Iron Age vessel. Whilst the sherd largely curves inward gradually, it starts to curve outward toward the bottom quite sharply. The fabric is coarse and appears to contain a moderate density of angular inclusions of crushed limestone. The exterior is smooth, whilst the interior is quite rough. The colour is largely a pale, reddish-brown but there are some grey and black sections.

An incomplete, uninscribed Western British Iron Age silver unit, dating likely from AD 20-45. Primarily made from copper alloy but with silver plating. The coin is of a type produced in the late Iron Age period in the area of modern Gloucestershire, western Oxfordshire, and parts of Herefordshire, Worcestershire, Warwickshire, Berkshire, Wiltshire, and Somerset. The Dobunni inhabited a similar area in the early Roman period, thus making it likely that they minted the coin. Obverse: head right. Reverse: stylised horse left. Diameter: 15mm. Thickness: 1mm. Die axis: 6.
