A large piece of fired clay which is probably Roman kiln furniture dating from AD 43 - 410. The structure is roughly conical, but only half of the diameter survives and the narrower top is truncated. The structure is made from fired clay which is very difficult to distinguish from the sandy clay topsoil which fills the cavities. It is also not clear when the unfired material entered the structure; pre- or post-deposition. The top end of the cylinder is filled with burnt material, possibly ash from the kiln. The lower part of the cone is only partially fired, the solid parts varying…
