- A small fragment from a shale dish or platter was recovered from (1025), associated with pottery group SF44. The fragment is small, weighing 1 gram maximum and 20mm in length. It appears to be of bituminous shale, probably from Kimeridge in Dorset. It may be the rim of a dish or platter (Mills and Woodward 1993). Shale is fairly rare in Cornwall, usually confined to bracelets and spindle whorls (Quinnell 2004, 6.11). The other example of a vessel is a fragment of a vessel recently identified at a 4th century AD site concerned with some industrial activity at Porthleven, West Cornwall (Quinnell forthcoming).
