The colour of the fabric is an oxidised orange. The outer surface is glazed and the inner is heavily abraded. The glaze is a relatively thick brown green colour.

A relatively large sherd from the base of a glazed vessel of probable medieval (1150-1300) date. The base is most likely to be from the bottom of a large serving jug and has a ‘pie-crust’ styled decoration. The external face of the sherd is glazed with a relatively thick greenish brown coloured glaze which covers the whole of the surface and the external edge of the base. The base is very patchy and is more decorated with drip marks. The glaze on the external face is uniform in nature. The rim and body is missing. The base of the pot is likely to be relatively flat. The fabric of t…

A sherd from the rim of a vessel of probable later medieval (1350-1500) date. The sherd is most likely to be from a small jar or pot; it has not been sooted and so is unlike to have been used as a cooking vessel. The internal and external faces of the sherd are glazed, although the inner surface is much patchier than the outer. The glaze is a relatively thick yellowish brown-green colour. The fabric of the sherd is a relatively hard earthenware with a number of small angular and sub-angular grit, grog and ironstone inclusions. There is also a large amount of mica in the fabric. The fab…

A very thin body sherd from the side wall of a vessel of probable medieval (1250-1350) date. The fineness of this sherd suggests a high status function. The external face of the sherd is glazed with a relatively thin patchy yellowish green coloured glaze which covers the whole of the surface. The glaze is uniform in nature; where it has been abraded in the soil the oxidised orange colour of the pottery shows through. The glaze is currently laminating due to conditions in the burial environment. The base of the pot and rim are missing. A series of circumferential ribs are present but th…

Two conjoining sherds joined by finder to form a relatively large body sherd from the neck or upper side wall of a large vessel of probable medieval (1250-1350) date. The vessel is most likely to be a tubby jug or similar large serving vessel. The external face of the sherd is glazed with a light yellowish green colour glaze which covers the whole of the external face. The glaze is patchy in places and seems to have been applied by dipping with vertical streaks / run marks being present. An area of possible slashed decoration is present near the top of the sherd; this would form a band…

A relatively large body sherd from the side wall of a vessel of probable medieval (1150-1300) date. The external face of the sherd is slightly sooted and so most likely to be from a cooking vessel. The base of the pot and rim are missing. In profile the sherd flares slightly at one edge (probably the rim) and curves slightly across the width suggesting a relatively large diameter. The fabric of the sherd is a relatively hard earthenware with a number of small angular and sub-angular grit, quartz, and coal inclusions. There is also a large amount of mica in the fabric. The fabric colour…

A relatively large sherd from the base of a vessel of probable medieval (1150-1300) date. The external face of the sherd is sooted and so most likely to be from a cooking vessel. The base of the pot is likely to be relatively flat possibly suggesting that it may also be utilised as a serving dish. The fabric of the sherd is a relatively hard earthenware with a number of small angular and sub-angular grit, quartz, iron stone and coal inclusions. There is also a large amount of mica in the fabric. The fabric colour of the sherd is a mid grey colour. A suggested diameter of the base is 24…
