Description
February 2006. Watching brief.
Only two unstratified sherds of pottery were collected: a split rod handle from a jug in sandy orange ware, with traces of white slip adhering, broadly dated to the 13th to 16th centuries, and a rim sherd, probably from a flowerpot in a sandy fabric, with an internal red wash, indicating a post-medieval date. These finds were retained for the FAU teaching collection. <1>
