[MR] BBC: Medieval Pottery and Kiln in Wales

[Garth Groff via Atlantia]

Noble Friends,

Today the BBC reports that excavations near Newport in Wales have . . . 
uh . . . unearthed nearly 10,000 pottery sherds. The archaeologists were 
excavating a kiln site for interpretation and preservation, and believe 
they may have stumbled onto an additional kiln:

More about the 15th century kiln, including a photo and diagram, can be 
seen at https://www.gooseygoo.co.uk/site/newport-medieval-kiln/ . 
Another story with an excellent photo is at

Yours Aye,
