Full description
Silvester, R. J., 1982, NDLR. Report on Prehistoric Pottery (Report - non-specific). SDV363308.
Six sherds and five fragments of a large coarse ware vessel, the three largest sherds forming about a quarter of the base of the pot which would have been circa 100 millimetres in diameter. On the basis of gritting and general appearance a date in the later 2nd-earlier 1st millennium BC is postulated.
