Four fragments of Roman (AD 43-410) ceramic building material in the form of a box flue tile. The fabric is a red hue, some of the pieces have a reduced grey core. The decoration comprises either combed or rolled cross hatchings. Box flue tiles were used to create flues in the walls of building, through which hot air generated by the hypocaust system would pass. The grooves decorating the surfaces are key to improving the adhesion of the tile to wall plaster. The presence of flue tiles for a hypocaust suggest a substantial building. Collective weight: 280.69 grams.
