Full Description
The continued search for the site of the supposed Romano-British pottery kilns on Bagber Farm in 1976 located a thin scatter of worn and fragmentary imbrex tile centred around SY 80129907 in freshly ploughed pasture. The only pottery sherds, however, were a fragment of amphora and wheel-thrown grey jar-rim with no sign
of black-burnished ware. The crucial area may lie in the remaining pasture to the west. (area SY 800991). <3>
