[150] The metal was tested for lead with positive results.
[151] A slightly larger stem from a glass of similar form was found outside the kitchen in deposit T.N. 1; not illustrated.
[152] For a glass of comparable form, but of soda metal, see G. B. HUGHES, "Old English Ale Glasses," _Wine and Spirit Trade Record_ (April 15, 1954), p. 428 and fig. 1.
[153] For a similar stem shape attributed to the last decade of the 17th century see A. HARTSHORNE, _Old English Glasses_ (London, 1897), p. 245, pl. 34.
[154] The association of color and style of decoration coupled with the relationship of diameter to height as displayed here is generally indicative of early date. In the 18th century, jars of this diameter tended to be taller, less spread at the base, and with the blue decoration much darker.
[155] Waste products from London delftware kilns were used to build up the north foreshore of the River Thames between Queenhithe and Dowgate in the City of London. Among the many fragments recovered from this source were biscuit porringer handles of a type similar to the Tutter's Neck example. The manner in which the rim is folded over the handle seems to be a London characteristic, Bristol examples more often being luted straight to the rim. The Thames material was deposited in the late 17th century and probably came from a pottery on the Bankside on the south side of the river.
[156] A very small porringer rim sherd of this ware was found at Tutter's Neck in context T.N. 24; not illustrated.

[162] The smaller base fragment was found in stratum T.N. 17, a much later context than the rest. If this fragment does come from the same dish, it must be assumed that the fragments were scattered and that the sherd was moved in fill dug from an earlier deposit.
