Roman pottery flagon
Red ware (? with red slip). Falls outside the above series, both in fabric and form. Long neck, with imitation of the ringed mouthpiece, but with the moulding of the rings replaced by three narrow grooves. No exact parallel can be cited, but the weakly bent handle, attached to the base of the neck without regard to the distribution of the weight, indicates a class of third-century revivals of early forms associated with new features described by Wheeler (Caerleon Ampitheatre, Fig. 21, 58)
