529 Buckland, P C & Dolby, M J, ‘A Roman Pottery Kiln Site at Blaxton Quarry, near Doncaster’, The Archaeology of Doncaster: Vol. 4, fasc. 1, The Roman Pottery Industry, 1980. exc/kln/c160-250/ggp bla/bbl/obb/grf/lcg/dal/prs The Blaxton kilns lie close to the kiln complex of Cantley, Branton, Rossington Bridge and West Bessacarr which was excavated with varying degrees of success since the 1950’s. This is a detailed and well illustrated publication, very useful for the study of South Yorkshire pottery. Location: not given 530 Buckland, P C & Magilton, I R, The Archaeology of Doncaster: 1.

This paper is a useful and detailed synthesis of the results, prior to full publication. 533 Green, S, ‘Roman Pottery’, in Rahtz, P, Hayfield, C & Bateman, J, ‘Two Roman Villas at Wharram Le Street’, York University Archaeological Publications 2, 1986, (microfiche) 12.14; 26.10. exc/vil amp/cts/ets/shg/ogr/hcs Not the final pottery report, but a useful summary of material from excavations and field walking. The use of microfiche reduces the value of the present report.

The discussion of Pompeian-red ware, African red slip ware and ‘Eboracum’ ware is extremely useful.

Location: not given 536 Breeze, D I, ‘The manufacture of pottery in Roman Scotland’, Proc Soc Antiq Scot 116, 1987, 185-189. syn/ptp/lst-2nd Breeze builds on K F Hartley’s 1976 paper (Glasgow Archaeol J 4), with several more sites and the results of thin-section analysis of pottery from the fort at Bearsden. This paper acts as an introduction to the research currently being conducted at Bradford University (by Mark Gillings) under an SERC/CASE research studentship.

The pottery is divided first by date (Flavian/Antonine), and within that by vessel type. Annoyingly the report eschews any fabric analysis a la Inchtuthil (entry no 335, Vol 2) and fails to make comparisons between periods or with other sites (but see the mortaria report, entry no 540); the size of the assemblage is not stated. A fair amount of the Flavian vessels turn out to be residual in later contexts and are therefore presented only for their typology. 539 Hartley, B R (with S S Frere), ‘XIX.

For site & location details, see entry no 537. sts/mvs/cts/ets This report draws useful contrasts/comparisons, for the Flavian period, between this site and Camelon, Inchtuthil and Ardoch. Of intrinsic interest are late Montans ware, 1st century Lezoux ware (perhaps exported later than previously thought?), and the fact that the only East Gaulish samian occurs in a demolition pit. 540 Hartley, K F (with S S Frere), ‘XXL The List of Mortaria’; ‘XXII.
