Abstract:
Seven sherds of Late Iron Age pottery were thin sectioned. Three of them contained fossiliferous shell or voids where shell had once been. A source in the Lower Jurassic of Lincolnshire is perhaps likely. One contained sandy limestone and another grog and shell, possibly from the same general area as mentioned above. The last two sherds were the most distinctive, for they both contained inclusions of a granite or grano-diorite nature. These igneous inclusions do not fit in with the geology of the Gamston region, and they must be regarded as imports to the site. Interestingly enough, this fabric resembles certain granitic tempered Anglo-Saxon pottery of the west Midlands, thought possibly to derive from the Charnwood Forest area to the north-west of Leicester.
