Ceramic vessel sherd, probably post-medieval or modern. The fabric is light orange-red and the finished product was glazed only on the inside, probably to make the vessel water proof. The outside seems to have been treated as well, being of dark red colour.

This is a socketed clay pipe bowl (socket broken off) depicting Alexander II, the Russian Czar (1818-1881). The pipe was made by Gambier, one of the best known French pipe manufacturers, who specialised in making high quality figural pipes. It was their pattern number 822 and was already in production by 1868, since it is shown in a catalogue of that year. The firm continued producing pipes until about 1920 and so this piece could have been made at any time between about 1860 and 1920. Gambier pipes are relatively common in late C19th English contexts since they were imported in large…

Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Lancashire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Bowl of clay pipe dating from the 17th century, most of the stem missing. The stem's perforation is off-centre and the small spur does not bear a maker's mark. The only decoration is rouletting around the outer rim of the small bowl. The small size of bowl and spur and the off-centre perforation suggest a date in the early 17th century.

A body sherd of probably medieval pottery from a ceramic vessel. The sherd is 87.18mm long, 57.5mm wide and 9.3mm thick. It is an orange coloured fabric with dull black angular inclusions, especially on the outer surface. There are also smaller white inclusions and some mica or quartz. The fabric is hard, rough and hackly. It is wheel turned. There is no glazing. This sherd is probably from a medieval pot, but only an expert with knowledge of local pottery types could determine the ware and exact date.

Object type: VESSEL
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Lancashire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Small vessel fragment probably dating from the Roman period, i.e. c. AD43-410. The vessel was made of skin-coloured earthenware. The fabric looks like it was tempered with small quartzite crystals and probably some organic material that got burned in the kiln, but left impressions in the fabric. The sherd probably came off a medium-sized lipped bowl.

Broad period: ROMAN
County: Lancashire

Very small vessel fragment probably dating from the Roman or Medieval period, i.e. c. AD43-1500. The fragment is small and probably came off a simple bowl or food storage vessel. It was made from light orange/red-coloured earthenware and it was, in all likelyhood, not glazed which suggests a Roman date.

Small vessel fragment probably dating from the late medieval or early post-medieval period, i.e. c. AD1400-1700. A very lovely sherd, probably from a late medieval plate. It was made from brown-glazed light-red coloured earthenware. It was decorated with a scroll or wave-motif made out of white slip before it was glazed.

Small vessel fragment probably dating from the later medieval or post-medieval period, i.e. c. AD1400-1700. The vessel was made from light skin-coloured earthenware and it seems to have had a greenish or yellowish glaze on the obverse. The glaze is very worn and only the light-coloured slip between glaze and vessel body can be seen still in some places. The fabric was tempered with larger and medium-sized quartzite as the surface is quite rough to the touch. There are very worn finger marks on the inside and it is likely that this is a fragment of medieval or post-medieval bowl.

Small vessel fragment probably dating from the medieval or early post-medieval period, i.e. c. AD1400-1700. The vessel was made from light skin-coloured earthenware and it seems to have had a greenish or yellowish glaze on the obverse. The glaze is very worn and only the light-coloured slip between glaze and vessel body can be seen still in some places. The fabric must have been tempered with very fine quartzite sand as it is very soft to the touch. There are finger marks on the inside and it is likely that this is a fragment of medieval green-glazed jug.

Small vessel fragment probably dating from the Prehistoric period, i.e. c. 2000BC-1st century AD. The vessel was made from very soft skin-coloured earthenware and hence, the fragment is very worn and the surface soft to the touch. The fabric was tempered with small and medium-sized quartzite sand and possibly some organic matrial that got burned in the kiln.

Object type: WALL PLASTER
Broad period: IRON AGE
County: Lancashire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Several small pieces of burned clay, possibly daub dating from from the prehistoric period, i.e. c. 2000BC-AD100. The material is white in colour and the fragments are very worn. It is likely that they are prehistoric, but they could date the Roman or medieval period. Unfortunately, the fragments are so small and/or worn that no impressions of the wattle (i.e. the wall material, that is sticks/branches/etc) remains on the inside.

Small vessel sherd dating from the medieval or early post-medieval period, i.e. c. AD1500-1700. The sherd is of small size, but well preserved. It was made from light-colour red/orangey earthenware, but the surface is very worn and it is difficult to ascertain whether or not it had been glazed. It is, however, likely that it was. The fabric is not very fine, but it does not show many inclusions except some small larger fragment of quartzite. The sherd is somewhat similar in make and fabric to LANCUM-9898E2, but they most certainly do not come from the same vessel.

Possibly a very small floor tile fragment dating from the medieval or early post-medieval period, i.e. c. AD1500-1700. It was made from dark red earthenware and none of the glaze remains. However, the fragment is tiny and very worn, so that a positive identification is very difficult.

Object type: PIPE (SMOKING)
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Lancashire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Several small fragments of a clay pipe bowl and stem probably dating from the 18th or 19th century. The bowl was plain with no moulded ornament on the sides or along the mould 'seams'. Furthermore, most of the stem and more importantly, the spur are missing. This makes it very difficult to date it or associate with a maker (the spur would have carried the maker's stamp). It seems to have been quite fragile, with a long, tall bowl and this suggests that it was a later clay pipe, i.e. early modern.

Very small triangular unidentified object, probably a fragment of a cu-alloy dress accessory or belt strap dating from the medieval, post-medieval or modern period. The fragment is very worn, plan on the reverse and possibly decorated with parallel grooves on the obverse. However, it is so small and worn that it is impossible to tell what it was initially part of.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Vessel sherd probably dating from the late medieval or post-medieval period, i.e. c. AD1500-1800. The sherd is very thick and sturdy, but not very well made. It was unevenly fired and even though no glaze remains on the outside, it is very likely that it was glazed. It probably belonged to a post-medieval or early modern storage vessel.
