Jefferies & Barford review the pottery dating evidence (pp35-36) and also provide more detailed comments by site (pp73-78), although these are not always very clear.

There is no detailed discussion of the poyyery, nor are there drawings or descriptions. Miller writes: "The majority of the pottery was small sherds of coarse ware typical of Romano-British domestic sites". He also notes a 4th century Hadham storage jar and a stamped mortarium, and gives a list of samian forms but no sources.

These groups were quantified, but the data does not appear in the report - no reason is given. This is nevertheless the first decent publication of Roman pottery from the district.
