1 | 106 | 12 | 1 | 13 | 1790-1900 | 1800-1880 | Plain C19th stems all heavily iron-stained. Single mouthpiece from a long-stemmed pipe. | |||
1 | 107 | 1 | 16 | 17 | 1800-1900 | 1800-1880 | Plain C19th stems all iron-stained; two have traces of green glaze. The bowl fragment is a C19th rim with a faint mould line around the rim suggesting that the mould has been altered or repaired during its lifetime. | |||
1 | 110 | 1 | 1 | 1790-1880 | 1790-1880 | Single plain stem of late C18th or C19th type. | ||||
1 | U/S | 3 26 | 1 | 30 | 1640-1900 | 1800-1900 | WL heel x1; milled heel x1 | This is a mixed unstratified group representing all periods of pipe production and use. | ||
2 | 200 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 1640-1900 | 1800-1900 | Cut heel x1 | Small but mixed group. The bowl form and one of the stems are clearly late C17th to early C18th, but there is also a later stem of C19th type. | ||

2 | 204 | 2 | 6 | 8 | 1640-1900 | 1800-1900 | Small group that includes some C17th fragments, but these are quite small and abraded. Group is most likely to have been deposited in the later C18th or C19th with some earlier residual material (latest pieces are some plain stems of late C18th or C19th type). | |||
2 | 209 | 2 | 2 | 1800-1900 | 1800-1900 | Two plain stems of C19th type. | ||||

2 | U/S | 2 | 8 | 10 | 1640-1880 | 1750-1850 | This is a mixed unstratified group representing all periods of pipe production and use, although the majority of the fragments are C17th or early C18th types. | |||
