One of the pottery wares of southern Roman Britain in the late 3rd-4th centuries AD, produced by craftsmen in the New Forest area. Decoration is scarce, consisting of white slipped scrolls or rosette stamps or stamped-on designs. Vessel shapes included cups, flagons, and mortaria. It was of two kinds: one a hard gray ware, with a painted, white ornamentation and a dark purple glaze and the other was a creamy ware with a red slip. It had limited distribution, no farther than 80 km from the kilns.
