Title
Roman box flue tile fragments
Description
English: Five fragments of ceramic box flue tiles from a Roman hypocaust system. 
   The five fragments appear to represent at least four different fabrics - ranging from dull orangey-brown with fine stone inclusions, to deep orange and with much more frequent and coarse temper material. They also differ in thickness, perhaps suggesting the presence of several buildings or periods of construction.

The upper surface of each tile has a series of scored lines, which is designed to act as a key for plaster.

The largest fragment measures up to 100.3mm long by 68mm wide and 20.4mm thick. The total weight of the assemblage is 329.31g.
Depicted place (County of findspot) Hertfordshire
