EAA 148: Hedingham Ware (Paperback)

Between the 12th and 14th centuries, the Hedingham pottery industry produced decorated and glazed finewares, mainly jugs, and grey-firing coarsewares. This study provides a synthesis of Hedingham Ware production and explores its distribution within East Anglia. A gazetteer of the fourteen known production sites is provided, and the pottery is used to create a typology of fabric types, vessel forms and decoration for both fine and coarse wares. The industry appears to have evolved from the early medieval tradition, although it has similarities with Late Saxon Thetford-type ware. The coarsewares are most similar to those produced near Colchester and show some similarities to coarsewares produced in Suffolk. The Hedingham industry did not die out in the 14th century but became subsumed into the sandy orange ware tradition and lost its identity as Hedingham Ware.
