This was the 12th century Pingsdorf Pot.

Named after the village of Pingsdorf in the Rhineland, Germany, this chance discovery has become a perfect example of Hedon's prosperity and continental trade in the Middle Ages.

However, this artefact hasn't just been exciting for Hedon.

It has been described by the British Museum as 'marvellous and rare' for its pristine condition, which makes it almost an archaeological miracle.

The pot was found alongside many other interesting finds.

Medieval green glazed-ware, a whetstone for sharpening knives and swords etc, a number of animal bones left over from cooking and a quantity of oyster shells, which were food for the common-folk in the Middle Ages, were all found on the same site.

(source: Hedon Museum) The property was therefore named Pingsdorf House to mark this historic discovery.
