Object type: TILE
Broad period: ROMAN
County: Wiltshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A fragment of a ceramic Roman tegula roof tile dating to the period AD 43- 410. The fragment of the tile has a visible arch to it, which would have enabled the tiles to interlock with each other. The fragment is well oxidized, with exception to a black reduced core, has a strong orange colour and has a few visible inclusions. The shape is rather irregular due to the breakages, but due to the arch, it can be suggested that the tile was utilized for roofing. The length of the fragment is c. 117.57mm; the width is c. 88.35mm, the thickness is 20.76mm and the weight is 296.57g.

A fragment of a medieval coarse ware tile, dating to the period AD 1250 - AD 1500 The fragments manufactured with an evident grog temperate with very little inclusions. The fragment has oxidised well as the dominant colour is orange, but there is also a visible reduced dark grey core. The design of the tile is inlaid, and it can be suggested that this was most likely achieved when the clay was in a plastic state. The design kind on the tile is scrolling foliage with a curved boarder. Judging by the shape of the tile, it was originally a four sided shaped, potentially used for fl…
