Shoulder sherd of quite hard fabric with common moderately sorted sub-angular crushed rock inclusions, including some calcite. Burnished brown external surface, abraded brown internal surface and grey core. Decoration comprises a row of small incised scrolls with pair of tooled horizontal lines below. A zone containing stamped circles joined by combed lines to form a wave motif is beneath and bounded by a second pair of tooled horizontal lines and an incised wavy line. All these motifs can be found on the Glastonbury style pottery of south western Britain (Bulleid and Grey, 1917) .
