The majority of vessels are course ware (grey, grogged, shelly). The oxidised element of the assemblage is consistent with the percentage of fineware found at other sites.

The grogged ware element is siginificant and reflects a continuation of the local native tradition of pottery production.

The lower overall percentage of greyware, although reflecting a preference for wheel-thrown, mass produced goods, indicates a lower level of consumption of greyware on this site.

Calcite-gritted vessels are more extensively represented in the assemblage than at neighbouring sites, reflecting a robust trading link to the manufacturing area along the Northamptonshire-Bedfordshire border.

According to the pottery analysis, activity increased dramatically during the late 1st to mid 2nd century (phase 1), peaking in the mid Roman period (phase 2). The late period (phase 3) reflects a strong occupation of the site and continued economic activity.
