Ceramic waster fragment. Reduced sandy fabric, delaminating at one end when viewed in section, with an integrally formed rounded boss or blob of diameter 50mm at one end. An irregular fragment with its greater extent of thickness 17mm, increasing to 38mm at the blob. A wavy profile may arise from distortion during firing. It is uncertain what may have been made – or failed to be made - here: brick and tile and coarse and fine pottery are all reported from the same restricted location.

Object type: WASTER
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Pottery waster. Greyware, probably a rim sherd from a failed pot which has collapsed in the early stages of its firing, perhaps because the clay was too soft and wet to retain its shape. This is a significant indicator of a pottery production site in the vicinity, though not necessarily one that operated on an industrial scale. Suggested date: Roman, 43-410. Weight: 50.16gms.
