Unless you know something about local pottery it's difficult to say for sure.  I have some I've picked up local to me and thanks to TimeTeam (they did a dig down here) I know it's late 1300 to early 1400 unglazed and very course.
 I also have some 1600/1700's which is glazed and is similar to yours. But that's no guarantee.

It's not roman.

Almost no roman pottery was glazed (even Samian ware has a slip rather than a glaze)
