Three sherds of Early Neolithic pottery, excavated in 1964 during Paul Ashbee's investigations of Beckhampton Road Long barrow. The sherds are oxidised and tempered with crushed flint and sand, and were probably originally part of an early Neolithic bowl. The sherds are illustrated in Ashbee's 1979 publication of the excavations, and are recorded s being found in the ploughsoil above the longbarrow mound.
