1 type 23 bowl c.1760-1800 with initials RW on sides of spur. No obvious local source.
Heels/spurs (MNI 19)

1 heel with initials IK on side and stamped crown mark in relief on base. Produced by James Kuquit of Cambridge, active c.1713-50.
1 heel with initials on side and stamped eight spoked wheel mark on base
1 heel with stamped five petalled Tudor rose mark on base (see above)
1 heel with incuse letter C on base. This is paralleled by two finds from the St. John’s Triangle site (Cessford in Newman 2008). These were dated to c.1730-80 and the mark could potentially relate to John Carter, active in Cambridge c.1703-26.
1 heel with initials WP on sides and unclear I stamped symbol on base, bowl form c.1700+. Possibly William Phipos of Cambridge, who died in 1740.
1 heel with initials PW on sides, bowl form c.1700+. No obvious local source, the initials PW have been found in the Cambridge area before dated c.1760-80 and a London origin was suggested (Flood 1976, 46)
