A ceramic vessel rim sherd of Roman date. The fabric has a pale grey/off-white coloured core and a dark grey to black surface.

A rim sherd of Roman Nene Valley colour coat ware with barbotine decoration. This sherd is from an open vessel, for example a bowl. The fabric is pale, being cream/white in colour. The surface colour coat, where it survives, is dark grey to black in colour. All surfaces and broken edges have dried mud adhering in places. The rim has a thickness of 11.06mm. Weight is 21.24g. Use of a rim chart indicates that the vessel is likely to originally have had a diameter of 240mm and that the sherd represents c.just over 10% of the total circumference.

A fragment of ceramic vessel of Roman date. This is a body sherd of Nene Valley Grey Ware. The vessel form is uncertain. The sherd weighs 4.38g and is 6.60mm thick. The roughly rectangular sherd measures 29.72mm x 20.43mm. This sherd is probably from the rim area, it curves slightly tapering in thickness towards a groove on what would presumably have been the underside of the rim that is 5.82mm in from the current edge. The fabric is a pale creamy grey colour with a slightly speckled grey colour coat applied to all surviving original surfaces although it has worn thin in places. The s…

A single sherd of ceramic prehistoric vessel found at the same location and just a few days after the two sherds recorded as record CAM-4F1413.
It has not been possible to date the sherd more precisely than to say that it is likely to have been made between the Neolithic and Iron Age. Both of the sherds are formed of a ubiquitus flint gritted fabric and both are from hand made vessels. The sherd weighs 3.3g, length is 22.23mm, width is 20.06mm and thickness is 6.56mm.
It is not possible to determine whether this sherd was part of the same vessel as either or both of the sherds re…

A Roman rim sherd from a ceramic mortarium. The fabric is a pale cream colour and the eleven surviving pieces of grit are black and angular. Weight 59.29g, thickness 6.35mm, the sherd is 83.85mm x 44.47mm. Use of a rim chart shows that the vessel would have had a diameter of 260mm and that 12.5% of the circumference of the vessel is represented by this sherd. In places the sherd has lost patches of its surface and none of the outer tip of the rim is present.
Mortaria were used to grind food in the same way that a pestle and mortar are used today. A rough surface was created by pu…

Ceramic head of a woman, possibly Roman. In style, it resembles the faces seen on face-neck flagons of the third to fourth century AD, however the fabric of the object is coarse and is likely to be of building material type rather than vessel fabric. The head has centrally parted hair and is wearing a headdress although the highly abraded nature of the object has obscured the detail of this. Likewise, the features of the face are visible but the detail is lost to abrasion. The anthropomorphic object measures 56mm in length, 49mm maximum width and is 14mm thick.
