Post-Roman Pottery From Excavations in Hertford and Ware 1973-2004

by Hugh Borrill

This volume publishes together the Anglo-Saxon and medieval pottery excavated over a long period, and over several sites in the two towns of Hertford and Ware. The pottery from the Hertford sites is exclusively urban in character, whilst the Hart sites contained both urban and high-status ecclesiastical ceramics. That said one of the most interesting features of the assemblages is the very different origins of the pottery despite the geographical seperation of the towns by only two miles. Hugh Borrill establishes that "Ware looks eastward to Essex and East Anglia, whilst Hertford looks westward to the Hertfordshire hinterland and to London". 86p b/w figs (Hertfordshire Archaeology 2008)
