Author(s): D F Williams
Heavy mineral separation and thin sectioning of likely 'wasters' associated with kilns found at the site showedthe fabric of the BB1 pottery to conform to the pattern of other BB1 made in the Wareham - Poole Harbour area. Pipe clay was identified at the site, and this may have been used to give an iron-free slip to the surfaces of late BB1 forms.
