Two incomplete probable Roman tegulae, dating AD 43-410. The ceramic is a reddish-orange colour withwith one fragment having a grey core. All that remains onf each example is part of the base and the lip along one edge. On the larger fragment, the lip is narrower at one end, which does not appear to be a result of damage or wear. There is a groove running along the inside of this lip, which would have held the imbrex in place. These fragments have come from an area that has previously produced the same material (ESS-FCA210) and so is quite significant for the archaeology of the are…
