Two shards of Roman fine grey ware, found close together. Consisting of one rim and one base shard of a similar fabric.

The main inclusions are sparse fine mica, abundant clear quartz and sparse light chalky fragments of various sizes. The base shard has part of the gently curving body of the vessel attached.

The base has straight, angled sides and a hole in the centre of the bottom. It would have been quite tall. The lack of further fragments makes it difficult to determine the …
