PAS-RC07 Grid F2 Two sherds from Severn Valley coarseware pottery vessels. As the fabric, colour and thickness differs in each sherd it is likely that different vessels are represented in the assemblage. Not enough survives of the sherds to indicate the form or overall vessel size. The sherds date from the Roman period (50 - 410). All the sherds are irregular in plan and broadly sub-rectangular in profile. The sherds are also worn and abraded by movement in the ploughsoil. The fabric is a relatively soft fired earthenware with a number of small angular and sub-angul…

PAS-RC07 Grid F4 Three body sherds of black burnished type pottery. They have a black fabric with some oxidation in the core. The fabric is hard with quartz and mica inclusions. All the sherds appear to have the same thickness, fabric and colour and therefore it is possible that they are from the same vessel. The largest sherd measures 26.1mm in length, 23.1 mm in width, 7 mm in thickness and weighs 5.9 grams. The smallest sherd measures 26.2 mm in length, 14.9 mm in width, 6 mm in thickness and weighs 2.3 grams. The bulk weight is 12.1 grams.

PAS-RC07 Material found out of grid Three body sherds from a medieval cooking vessel (1150-1400). They have a black fabric with some oxidation in the core. The fabric is hard with quartz and mica inclusions. On the largest sherd there is evidence of iron corrosion (possibly iron stone). All the sherds appear to have the same thickness, fabric and colour and therefore it is possible that they are from the same vessel. The fabric of the vessel also looks burned - possibly suggesting it had been in an uncontrolled fire prior to deposition. The largest sherd measures 50.7mm in le…

PAS-RC07 Material found out of grid Rim sherd of a cooking pot or storage vessel probably dating from the late medieval or early post medieval period (1400 - 1600 AD). The fabric is a hard earthenware with sparse grog and sand inclusions. The fabric colour is mid orange grey. There is glaze present on the interior and rim but not on the exterior. From the rim of the sherd a diameter for the pot can be estimated; this would be approximately 13cm, however, only 5% survives so this is not accurate. There is not enough of the body of the pot surviving to give an estimation of …

PAS-RC07 Material found out of grid A bodysherd of a wheel thrown ceramic vessel of a Late Post Medieval stoneware pottery type (19th Centuries AD). It has a light grey hard fabric, with an external salt glaze. This type of pottery was typically produced during the 19th Centuries AD and commonly referred to as English Stoneware. The sherd probably came from a large ceramic storage bottle type vessel. Firing condition: oxidised exterior, oxidised core, oxidised interior. Hardness: Hard Surface texture: Smooth Surface treatment: Grey salt glaze on exterior with brown dec…

PAS-RC07 Material found out of grid A fragment of possible ceramic building material. The fragment is relatively robust and it is possible that it could be a large sherd from a Severn Valley vessel: however from theshape, it is more likely that it is a fired remnant of rough brick or tile. The fabric of the fragment is very similar to Severn Valley pottery dating from the Roman period (100-400 AD). However such a tight date cannot be suggested for this as this form of pottery is very local - and therefore the clay source would have been used throughout the historic periods.…

PAS-RC07 Grid G9 A rim sherd from a highly decorated, wheel thrown, shallow bowl or dish slipware vessel dating from the late post medieval period (1670-1710 AD). The fabric of the pottery is hard with sparse inclusions of grit, black ironstone and some mica inclusions. The fabric colour is a mid orange brown. The sherd is glazed with a mid orange brown colour. A mid yellow trailed slip has been applied to the rim in a zig-zag line. The sherd represents a vessel with a diameter c. 11cm however, since less than 5% remains, this is not accurate. The sherd measures 30.7mm in len…
