County: Warwickshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A fragment of a fired clay oven plate or lid. The fragment present was part of a larger sub-circular thick fired clay disc, commonly found in Middle to Late Iron Age (500 BC to 100 AD) sites. The fabric consists of an oxidised grog tempered fabric, with frequent fossil shell inclusions. It measures 69.49mm in length, 51.91mm in width and is 20.54mm thick. It weighs 72.8 grams. Discs like this have been found in several sites in Oxfordshire and there is currently debate on their original use. The main hypothesis is that they functioned as either oven plates or lids.
