Details A food vessel was found at this location during excavations works for the foundations of an ice-house on a small knoll (presumably in the early 19th Century). The vessel is a tripartite vase with a heavy square rim and AO cord decoration on upper two thirds of the body. There may be some confusion with this and NJ72NW0067, which was apparently unearthed close by in very similar circumstances.
