Title
Medieval: Ceramic Vessel
Description
English: Three (3) sherds, weighing 13.7 grams, from the same wheelthrown ceramic vessel. These sherds consist of one (1) rimsherd and two (2) bodysherds.

All three (3) sherds have a fabric similar to that described as SAND1 in Ratkai 2000, p. 85. It consists of a glazed sandy ware, a regional type of jug, found in Herefordshire and Shropshire, with a main concentration in Worcestershire and Staffordshire. One of the bodysherds exhibits some rouletted decoration, which would indicate dating of mid 12th to mid 13th centuries (1150 to 1250 AD).

All sherds have been photographed separately.
