The object is a probable base fragment from a crucible or mould which David Symons (Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery) suggests possibly dates to the 15th to 17th centuries, or Late Medieval to Post Medieval. The object is ceramic and is incomplete. The material is mid pinkish-red in the centre, and is very hard and brittle which suggests that the object has been heated at a very high temperature, either over or in a fire. The material has occasional sub-rounded inclusions of quartz (less than 1mm). The fragment is 99.4mm x 69.9mm at the base, 53.1mm high and 34.1mm thick. The…

Five fragments of ceramic box flue tiles from a Roman hypocaust system. The five fragments appear to represent at least four different fabrics - ranging from dull orangey-brown with fine stone inclusions, to deep orange and with much more frequent and coarse temper material. They also differ in thickness, perhaps suggesting the presence of several buildings or periods of construction. The upper surface of each tile has a series of scored lines, which is designed to act as a key for plaster. The largest fragment measures up to 100.3mm long by 68mm wide a…

The Stonea Bowl was attributed to the potter Butrio based on its motifs, and dates to the Hadrianic period. It is a Dragendorff 37 form, a…
