NOAK HILL, HAVERING, ESSEX: ARCHAEOMAGNETIC DATING REPORT, 2001
Author(s): Paul Linford
Excavations by the Rochford Hundred Archaeological Society at Noak Hill in Essex uncovered the remains of a rectangular kiln constructed of stacked tiles. Typological evidence suggested that the site was associated with the manufacture of Mill Green ware which was produced in the region during the 13th and 14th centuries AD. However, it was not clear whether the excavated kiln had been used for the production of this pottery. Archaeomagnetic analysis produced a mean thermoremanent direction of high precision and indicated that the kiln had last been fired between 1365 and 1405 AD.
