Hi folks, I picked up a couple of Potsherds on Tuesday and I wondered if anyone might be able to help with dating them?

They were surface finds from a new permission and I've had a couple of Roman coins from the same area, but also some Georgian and Victorian coins. There's a Medieval scheduled monument 2 or 3 fields away too.

Any help appreciated.

I'd say late medieval period. Hope that help's.

I’d say post medieval, only cause of the uniform firing of the clay on relatively chunky items, mixed with the relatively uniform glaze. Hard to be absolutely sure without seeing them though.
Yes I really don’t like Roman coins, I’m not joking
