Description

Fragments of 1st century pottery collected from here in 1931. <1> This OS card has NGR as TQ 6900 8113. <2> This OS card gives NGR as TQ 6853 8127. <3> In SMR as NGR TQ 690813 and, on another sheet, TQ 687810. <4> This source has TQ 690 811, Roman pottery from south east of the church. <4> <5> Could be that TQ68-012 and TQ68-013 (see EHER 1897) duplicate one another? Both refer to 1st century pottery found in 1931. Possibly duplicates EHER 1895 also? Information from NRHE: Roman pottery found 1931 (NAT) <6> Colchester Museum has Romano-British pottery from here." <7> In 1931 Mr. M.R. Hull collected fragments of 1st century pottery from this site. (This looks like duplication of TQ 68 SE 12: Hull did not report this site but he did report site 12) <1>
