Ceramic building material. Sandy oxidised fabric; two small concavo-convex sherds, land drain tile fragments. Fiercely abraded. The manufacture of tubular land drain tiles became possible with the invention of extrusion machinery in the 1840s. Given a long family occupation of the farm whence these were reported, these were probably introduced by an ancestor of the finder, a point which may occur in records maintained if any such survive.

An assemblage of Roman pottery collected unsystematically during metal detecting. The assemblage comprises 98 sherds weighing a total of 1473g.

Samian and Colour Coated Wares are present in smaller numbers, as is a single sherd of a locally produced mortarium. The colour-coated wares are Nene-Valley types; while some might be Nene Valley proper, others could well be be Lincoln products as splitting these fabrics is challenging. The colour-coated ware…

A base from a post-medieval Cistertian ware vessel (c. 1500-1650). The base is flat, circular, and has a dark grey, reduced fabric with frequent calcareous inclusions. A thick, dark brown/black glaze is visible on the basal edge and also on the interior. Sitting on top of the glaze on the interior is a large, irregular layer of what appears to be molten lead. WIthin this is an oval pellet of lead. The break of the vessel wall is smooth and appears burnt in places. It is possible that this vessel was used to melt lead.
