Notes: Object too fragmentary to measure without restoration. Two largest contiguous fragments were at 130mm across, this was not a full diameter, but is not inconsistent with Woolley's measures. The spout also matches description. Handle not present in object observed, but the markings on the bag indicate it is 1 of 2 bags, presumably the other has the handle? Find handle to confirm. Wolley handle length added to diameter of bowl to get total length. Seen - 11/13
