Full Description

Broomhill.
Two dark green glazed drinking mugs late 14th - 15th century.
Thetford Museum, (S1) (mention, Jope) - pottery St John's College, Oxford.
R. R. Clarke (NCM).

These mugs, still at Thetford Museum in 1998, reidentified in ref (S2) as 16th/17th century. Stated to have been found 'when raising gravel at Broomhill'.
E. Rose (NLA), 4 June 1999.

The latter point suggests sites NHER 5651 or NHER 5642 may be the correct site.
E. Rose (NLA), 17 September 1999.
