Neolithic Langdale axe dating from c. 2500-2100BC. The axe is somewhat worn and abraded with some older damage and a few recent chips taken off. The axe was ground and polished and has a very smooth, shiny surface. It is now of dirty-white/beige colour but was probably dark blueish green to start with. The axe is knapped from a light blueish/grey buff volcanic tuff. This axe is, like many of the larger and finished (polished) Langdale axes, sub-rectangular plan with distinctive humped faces. The axe fragment has been damaged in several areas (old and fresh damage). The recent damage c…

Probably a flint flake or a fragment of a bifacially worked flint knife, dating from the Neolithic period, that is c. 4000-2350BC. The knife was bifacially worked with some cortex remaining on the right side, along the edge. On the opposite site, the edge shows clear retouch/serrated edge.

Object type: KNIFE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Lancashire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Leaf-shaped Neolithic flint knife or oval side scraper dating from c. 3000-2100BC. This object appears to have been bifacially flaked suggesting that it is a knife. However, we do not have a side view for this object (only two images were provided by the finder) so we cannot be certain. It looks to have pressure flaking on dorsal side. It was probably formed on tertiary debitage rather than a deliberate stuck core.

Object type: ARROWHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Cumbria
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A knapped barbed flint arrowhead possibly of late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age date, c. 2500-1500. The arrowhead looks complete even though one of the barbs may have been slightly damaged. The arrowhead is of roughly triangular shape with two barbs on either side and a very broad based. The notch for one of the barb is slightly higher than the other and the barb itself looks smaller in comparison. The arrowhead was made from dark brown milky non-translucent flint and all surfaces are worn. It is unclear if this arrowhead is of British origin - it is very different in shape from ou…

County: Doncaster
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An irregular tertiary flake of translucent grey flint mottled with a low gloss surface dating from the Early Neolithic period, that is c. 4000-2500BC. There is some possible retouch but this is better interpreted as plough damage. Low bulb of percussion; some suggestion of a platform dressing before the removal of the blade.

Object type: AXEHEAD ROUGHOUT
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Cumbria
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Large middle to late Neolithic axehead roughout made from a Cumbrian Group VI Langdale tuff dating from ca. 3500-2500BC. The roughout is in very good condition, with only little modern damage. All surfaces are worked. The roughout is thin-butted, double convex in section and has one crudely rounded and one almost rectangular end: the latter one would have been shaped into the blade. It expands in plan from both the butt and the blade end to reach its maximum width about midway along its length. Other records of 'long' rough outs made from Langdale tuff include LANCUM-7BE356, LA…

A polished Langdale axe fragment of later Neolithic date (c. 2500-2100 BC). Probably of Group VI (Langdales, Cumbria): The axe was knapped and polished/finished, but then broke. Only about a quarter or slightly less of the original axe survives. The breaks are all old. The axe was knapped from a greenish/grey buff volcanic tuff. This rock type is formed from compressed volcanic ash and has a fine grained composition with infrequent crystalline inclusions. Tuff is found in Britain and Ireland in a band that runs down the Irish Sea from the Lake District (the Langdale's source Group …

County: Oxfordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Probably late Neolithic or Bronze Age flake fragment or debitage dating from c. 4000-1000BC. The flake is white in colour and the flint is heavily patinated. It is of triangular shape - it used to be longer but snapped and only the lower section survives. Possibly a primary waste flake that was reused as a knife or scraper: it shows retouch along the lower edge.
