Pottery flask, Inch
Braid Fell, Inch
This unusual pot with a flat base, onion-shaped body and short
neck was found on the open moorland above Craigcaffie. It is
crude and hand-made and dates from sometime between 1500 and
1750. It may have been a posset pot.
A posset was a hot drink of milk curdled with wine or spiced
ale.
