A NOTE ON THE PETROLOGY OF SAXON POTTERY FROM UPWICH, NEAR DROITWICH, WORCS.
Author(s): D F Williams
A small number of representative sherds were submitted for a fabric examination in thin section. On the basis of the range of non-plastic inclusions present in the sherds a number of fabric divisions were made: (1) organic, (2) quartz/sandstone, (3) quartz/sandstone/limestone, (4) quartz, (5) shell and (6) limestone/ calcite. The majority of these groups were probably made locally, although nos. (5) and (6) may have come from further afield.
