Three fragments of possible ceramic building material. All three fragments are relatively robust and may possibly come from some form of vessel, however from the shapes of the pieces it is more likely that they are fired remnants of wattle and daub walls (being the daub part). The reasons for this are the organic burnt out inclusions and also the series of very shallow U shaped sectioned hollows; these may correspond with the wattle hurdles in a wall. The fabric of the fragments is very similar to Severn Valley pottery dating from the Roman period (100-400 AD). However such a tight dat…

The style and decoration of the sherd suggests a late 16th to 18th century date.

Small fragment / pottery sherd from the base of a highly decorated slipware, wheel thrown, shallow bowl or dish probably dating from the post medieval period (1650-1700 AD). The fabric of the pottery is relatively hard with a number of rounded and sub-angular quartz, grit, and mica inclusions. The fabric colour is a mid brown buff. The upper surface of the sherd is glazed with an intricate geometric design formed from a trailed brown slip on a yellow background. Due to the smallness of the body sherd the circumference of the dish cannot be estimated. The sherd measures 24.9mm length, 1…

Three incomplete clay tobacco pipe bowls of late post medieval date (1670-1690). Similar in style to David Atkinson's Broseley Type 3 (Oswald 3) dated to 1670-1690. The bowl in this type is wider than average and has a distinctive very large round heel which projects beyond the junction with the stem. The mouth of the bowl is angled and does not contract or taper. All the pipes show signs of burnishing (straight, smoothing strokes) bottering (smoothing of the bowl rim) and rouletting. Each of the heels are marked with similar star or cartwheel like motifs, contained within a circular …

Incomplete fragment of a clay tobacco pipe bowl of late post medieval date (c.1630-50). The fragment is broadly similar to David Atkinson's Broseley Type 1a (1630-40) classification. It is best described as having a small bulbous bowl and relatively small flat base which is marked with a star shaped stamp consisting of 12 radiating spokes / arms. This form of stamp is known on later pipes from North Herefordshire; for example record HESH-D84B96 from Ullingswick, Herefordshire dated c. 1670 -1690. However, this is the earliest known example recorded to date. The pipe also shows signs …

Sherd from the base a wheel thrown, relatively thin walled, coarseware pottery 'Severn Valley' vessel. The sherd dates to the Roman period (50 - 410), however, not enough of the sherd survives to be certain of the form or size and without this a more specific date is difficult. The rim has a relatively thick base from which thin walls rise (although these are all broken and all that remains is the base itself. There is no evidence of a foot ring and the base is almost completely flat. The outer edge of the base has a distinct chamfered or bevelled edge. The fabric is r…
