SNN102473 - Chamberlains Factory Higham Ferrers: Archaeological Excavation Interim Report- Supplement- Pottery Assessment

Supplement to the interim report on the excavations carried out on the site of the former factory on the northern outskirts of Higham Ferrers. The supplement contains the assessment report and proposal for further analysis of the pottery associated with the late medieval pottery kiln revealed in the excavation. All the material from the kiln was in the tradition of late medieval Reduced ware, which is classified in the Northamptonshire County Ceramic Type Series as F365, and broadly dated to the 15th century. The range of vessel forms comprised almost entirely jars, pancheons, jugs and cisterns, although fragments of a very few dripping jars were also noted.
