WVGW - Waveney Valley Glazed ware

Glazed version of WVSW (body sherds may be confused with coarser versions of LMT). Fine to medium sandy with sparse coarser grains, occasional coarse inclusions such as ferrous oxide or chalk. Sample is white, but can be grey or orange.

TS sample description (Patrick Quinn): Fine and medium-sand sized rounded to sub-rounded inclusions of quartz with less common polycrystalline quartz, chert, quartzite and microcline. Possibly added as temper due to grain size gap between sand and more angular intrinsic quartz and rare muscovite mica inclusions. Several large natural silty clay features. Non-vitrified, non-calcareous reduction fired clay matrix. Frequent meso- and macro-elongate voids.

Example from Benacre.
