Site Assessment: Accession numbers?
Original HER entry merged with NRHE data transfer.
Note: The findspot is uncertain and may be at the given NGR which is a location in Kelvedon. Source <1> attributes the find to the Iron Age-Roman settlement at Kelvedon, but also describes the pottery as being found in Inworth. It has not been possible to verify which is correct and the mistake is also preserved in the NRHE record.
