Context (Amendments / updates)
This record originally gave the place as simply 'Europe; British Isles; England'. However, both the accession register and catalogue card make it clear that the correct place is Arbury Banks, Ashwell, Herts. The Place field has therefore been updated accordingly.

These cooking pot sherds were originally accessioned as D 1921.111 but at some stage were reaccessioned as Z 11510. The information from the Z record has been copied across to this record and the Z number added to the idno field. This record should be treated as the primary record.
