Abstract:		 A large group of Early Saxon pottery from three sites in Leicester was submitted for a fabric examination. This was achieved partly by thin sectioning and partly by the use of the binocular microscope. Five basic groups were differentiated: (1) granite, (2) sandstone, (3) quartz/quartzite, (4) quartz and (5) one sherd containing organic material. The large number of sherds containing granite or grano-diorite inclusions is particularly interesting and must surely point to the igneous areas of the Charnwood Forest region, only some six miles away, as the most likely source.
