Four body sherds of Roman colour coated ware, possibly New Forest colour coated ware. The sherds range from red to pale grey fabric with a black colour coat on one or both surfaces. Only one sherd is decorated. The sherd appears to be indented with a comb stamped decoration running vertically along the indent. This is possibly from an indented beaker. If the sherds are New Forest colour coated ware then the date range would be 260-370.

Two sherds of late medieval or post medieval (1400-1650) earthen ware pottery. These sherds probably come from the neck or spout of a bottle type vessel. The fabric is relatively hard with a number of rounded quartz, and broken burnt pottery inclusions. The fabric colour is two-tone, the outer a mid orange brown and the inner (core) a mid grey. This two-tone effect has been caused by low temperatures within the kiln and is typical of early pottery. The outer surface of the two sherds is a reddish brown colour but seems to be unglazed. The two sherds join together to form the neck of a …
