Abstract: |
A shallow trench excavated around the village for electricity cables was closely monitored and soil changes recorded. One Roman pot sherd and a small number of medieval sherds were found. A large post-medieval pottery assemblage (950 sherds) was collected, including concentrations of up to 200 sherds. Most of this material was derived from the village's pottery industry and part of it was waste material from the kilns. An unknown kiln was found beneath the village street but was not associated with the appreciable amounts of pottery. It had been hoped that the distribution of the different wares would show the location of specific kilns, but in practice the pottery was mixed, perhaps suggesting dumps were used by several potters or that varied wares were produced in each kiln. The report suggests that the complex village land network may partly reflect access routes radiating around kiln sites. [Au] |
