Pottery body sherd made of coarse admixture clay. The fabric has fine inclusions of pale felspars and mica, and additional larger inclusions such as quartz not natural to the clay to make it an admixture. The colour is mid-brown on the exterior and on the interior of the sherd. This type of admixture fabric is seen in Bronze Age vessels, dating from c.2100-1150 BC (Henrietta Quinnell, forthcoming).
