Watching brief and excavation prior to a housing development
We discovered a storage pit with the remnants of at least a dozen 12th -14th Century vessels. A tree had grown in the middle. Its roots spread neatly to the apex 154 cm below the surface. Alas this growth had shattered two "hart gebrannte Irdenware Dreiknubbenkruge" : a rare jug with three small protrusions in the rounded base as feet, or stands, which had been placed upright in the very tip of the funnel-shaped pit.
