Roman pottery vessel

A grey ware jar rim sherd with wavy line decoration; a grey ware pot lid sherd and a red ware flagon handle. There is also a Caerleon ware rim sherd from a flagon with an unusual cordoned rim (See Usk 1993: Webster fig 118, 2.1; page 257 and fig 148, no 11 page 317 "an unusual cordoned rim perhaps owing something to the Caerleon ware flagons. Mid 2nd century.") This rim sherd has been distorted during firing - possibly a candlestick base??
