ERMYS 1999.2
Kilham, East Yorkshire
Ceramic
Building Materials
by S Garside-Neville
Introduction
The
sample consists of material collected from fieldwalking across the site at
Kilham. All the CBM collected was
viewed rapidly to gain an idea of the range of material present.
Roman material
There
is at least one definite fragment of Roman material. This is a fragment of tegula, which is Roman roofing tile. There are also some other fragments which
may be imbrex (also roofing tile).
There is one piece of possible flue tile, which would be part of a
hypocaust system, but this is a very tentative identification. One piece of stone examined looked to have a
cut edge, and may be a tessera.
Medieval Material
Medieval
material consisted of a fragment of reused nib tile. This was a form of roofing tile often used in nearby Beverley and
Hull, and less so in York and Scarborough.
There were also other small fragments which may have been plain medieval
tile, but they were too small for certain identification. One small glazed fragment may be floor tile,
but could equally be a fragment of glazed roof tile.
Post medieval material
The
bulk of the material was post medieval in date. This consists of brick, floor tile, sewer pipe and pan tile.
Conclusion
The
bulk of the post medieval/modern material in this sample can be discarded. The post medieval brick, possible Roman
material and medieval material should be retained for further study.
