Worcestershire On-line Ceramic Database
|
Welcome to the Worcestershire On-line Ceramic Database. This is an innovative project to create an on-line database of all the types of pottery used, as well as made, in Worcestershire from prehistory to c 1900AD. To find out how to make the most use of the database use this link:

What does the Ceramic Database contain?
For each type of pottery the database contains information on
fabric (clay type and inclusions)
manufacture
forms
distribution
date
source
In addition there are images of pottery sections to aid in identification, and bibliographic references for each fabric including cross references to other fabric series. The database you see now was designed to make the complete fabric and form type series for Worcestershire accessible on-line. At the moment it contains information on prehistoric, Roman, Saxon and medieval pottery fabrics but we will be adding information to it continuously over the next two years.
