"The 19 vessels include a bucket, dishes, cooking pots, plates and bowls that may have been used for serving wine or for personal ablutions.

"The rich in this era would have used gold and silver plate on their tables," said the museum's Roman specialist James Gerrard. "These pieces would have come from the next tier down, the Middle Class."

"We know they were deposited in the well after 375 AD because of coins we found directly under them," he added."
