Body sherd from a pottery vessel, not enough survives to indicate the form, probably dating from the later medieval or early post medieval period (1350-1550). The sherd is irregular in plan and profile. The fabric is a relatively soft fired earthenware with a number of small angular and sub-angular grit, grog (pottery temper) and quartz inclusions. The fabric is also highly micaeous. The fabric colour is a uniform mid buff orange with the outer surface having a reduced grey colour. Glaze has been applied over this grey coloured external face. This glaze is a mid-dark yellowish green co…

Slightly laminated and burnt body sherd from a pottery vessel, not enough survives to indicate the form, probably dating from the later medieval or early post medieval period (1350-1550). The sherd is irregular in plan and profile. The fabric is over-fired earthenware (due to it being burnt in an uncontrolled fire) with a number of small angular and sub-angular grit, and quartz inclusions. The fabric is also highly micaeous. The fabric colour is a grey brown. There is no evidence of a glazed surface applied to the external face of the sherd, however, the sherd has laminated and this ma…

A cast copper alloy leg or foot from a copper alloy vessel probably a cauldron or skillet of later medieval date (1300 - 1500). The leg is sub-rectangular in plan and cross section. It tapers slightly from the top to the base. The top of the foot is uneven and would have been soldered to the body of the vessel. The foot expands at the very base; this forms a wide foot which would improve the stability of the vessel. The angle of the leg, when the foot is placed on a horizontal surface, is approximately 80°. The leg measures 29.9mm in length, has a maximum width of 17.2mm, a maximum th…

A body fragment of a Post Medieval salt glazed vessel. The sherd is a body fragment which is decorated salt glaze forming a mottled red/brown and light yellow/green coloured surface. The surface also has remains of an applied handle which has been decorated with three finger indentations. The handle is missing. The fabric is a stone ware which has a fine grey core and pale surfaces. The fabric has been highly fired. The sherd is a fragment which has fresh breaks. The sherd weighs 96.4g. The style and decoration of the sherd suggests a late 16th to 18th century date.

Cast lead alloy vessel repair (pot mend) of either Roman (50-400) or Medieval date (1200-1500). The repair is irregular in shape and plan being broadly oval in plan and H shaped in cross section. The mend itself is relatively thick with the outer face being even and neat, the inner surface is much more irregular. A sherd of the pottery vessel remains attached to the repair. The sherd is from a relatively thin walled (c. 5.2mm thick) earthenware vessel. The fabric is a relatively soft fired earthenware with a number of small angular and sub-angular quartz and grog (broken pottery) incl…

A cast copper alloy leg or foot from a copper alloy vessel probably a cauldron or skillet of later medieval date (1300 - 1500). The leg is complete and is broadly sub-rectangular in plan with a flaring expanded upper edge. It is broadly D shaped in cross section. The width also tapers from the top to the base. The upper part of the foot flares to form a wide semi-circular pad whose inner surface is concave. This widest piece would have been soldered to the body of the vessel. The outer edge of this upper part of the foot is decorated with a series of small scallop shaped ribs which con…

Cast copper alloy fragment from a vessel, dish or plate of probable late medieval or post medieval date (1400-1700 AD). Only a small fragment survives of a large circular or oval plate. It is irregular in plan and broadly sub-rectangular in cross section. The edge of the plate is bevelled and the other three edges are all broken. The breaks are relatively fresh – suggesting relatively modern damage. There is no decoration present, however the outer edge is heavily corroded and has a black carbon stained appearance. The fragment is a mid green colour with an uneven corroded and slight…
