A small ceramic vessel sherd of uncertain date ranging between Medieval to Post-Medieval. This abraded sherd weighs 4.43g. It measures 21.3mm x 19.0mm with a thickness of 9.2mm. The vessel has a reduced pale to mid grey core and oxidised outer surfaces. However, the presumed inner surface is curious in that the oxidised layer of the fabric is sandwiched between the core and a slightly darker mid grey layer. This 'layer' appears to be integral to the sherd rather than having been concreted, applied or accidentally fixed to the vessel. The knowledge of a pottery specialist would be need…
