Stalbridge Pottery - 2018 finds

Please see our Facebook page for further information on the finds, with examples of various named wares illustrated. 

Nancy Grace of the National Trust helped us to name and date our pottery from Stalbridge today, with the added bonus of showing us a piece of painted plaster from Chedworth. We had a range of 17th and 18th century pieces, including tin glaze, Westerwold, stone glaze, scraffito/Donyat and Verwood ware. Look in to see some pix of the pottery fragments alongside whole pot examples.

Seaton Hoard

The Seaton Hoard in RAMM, Exeter is almost a twin of the one found at Nether Compton, where we found the possible Roman 'fortlet' (4th c.) in 2015. Same date (1st c.), same type of coins, same amount (c.25-26,000). They must have been imported from Turkey in a batch of pots, then buried, as the coins are mint. Ideas?
