Object type: LID
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Darlington
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A large stone disc, possibly a pot base or lid dating from the Roman to the post medieval period. The disc measures 17.5cm in diameter and is perforated in the centre and burnt on one face and part of the circumference. Ruth Shaffrey notes that 'The type of burning present on this disc (blackening) is caused by direct exposure to flames (rather than just extreme heat) and it seems likely that this was used as a pot base, or more likely a pot lid (the perforation allowing for the release of some steam from a cooking vessel). Discs, of both small counter size, and larger pot base/lid si…

Object type: ANVIL
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Darlington
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A small iron object, possible an anvil dating to the Roman period. It comprises a small square-section bar, possibly broken at one end but may be complete, stepping out at the other to a wide triangular-sectioned head with a blunt tip.Chisel tip or anvil? An identical object from the Roman fort at Maryport (Jarrett 1976, fig. 20, 5) was thought to be a post-medieval chisel fragment, but the fact that it so closely resembles this example suggests that both objects are complete. They may have been small wedge-shaped anvils, perhaps comparable to very small mosaicist's hardies.
