A Saxon (early-medieval) base sherd probably from a jar, with small holes from leached chalk inclusions, with many inclusions also in situ, including some also of flint. In Winchester this fabric was used in the late Saxon period but the fabric is used elsewhere, for example Hamwic, from an earlier date (Helen Rees pers. comm. October 2009), so an earlier date cannot be ruled out. The sherd is a crude quadrilateral form with dark red-brown surfaces. The angle between base and body is obtuse.

One abraded rim sherd from a Roman jar in white-firing clay: Portchester ware (Fabric D), from the Alice Holt kilns. This sherd is roughly quadrilateral. The rim is thickened and rectangular in plan. The sherd is pale buff; the fabric has abundant (c. 40%) coarse sand temper, in addition to red quartz. The curvature of the surviving rim suggests that the jar may have had an original diameter of c. 180mm at the rim.

Pottery. Two joining fragments of rim-sherd (one illustrated here), in dark calcite-gritted fabric with occasional ?rock or grog? temper. Wallace Collyer suggests this to be a shelly ware with a Dales-Ware type of rim form from a large jar, of 3rd-to-4th-century date. Illustration by JE suggests the form is a narrow-necked jar. Further specialist coment kindly offered by Lepot Annick may indicate an earlier date; she writes as follows: 'This fragment is a pre-roman dolium produced in calcite tempered clays from the region of the Condroz (Devonian formation) in Belgium. A pap…
