County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A curved flint blade of probable Bronze Age date, 53.8mm in length and struck from a secondary flake of grey flint. The distal end has been worked into a triangular point with short semi-abrupt retouch on both sides. The flake has cortex on both faces at the proximal end suggesting that it derived from a nodule with a thick cortical layer.

A small piercer or multi-tool made from a semi circular fragment of mottled grey-brown flint. One side is slightly concave and one is convex, both have patches of short low angle to semi abrupt retouch struck from both sides to refine working edges for scraping; the distal end has an offset triangular point which has been retouched for use as a piercer.

A bifacially worked Neolithic lanceolate point or implement made from a pink-brown coarse-grained quartzite. The tool is 74.3mm in length and oval in shape, with a lenticular cross section. The faceting on both faces is suggestive of hard-hammered working.

A triangular flint blade of probable Neolithic to Bronze Age date, 43.7mm in length and struck from a patinated grey flint with a small patch of cortex on the distal end. The right side of the long edge towards the distal point has been worked with short abrupt retouch suggesting possible use as a piercer and there is a second patch of retouch around a notch on the left side long edge, suggesting that the tool may have been multi functional. This retouch has clearly broken through the blue-grey patination suggesting later prehistoric re-use of a much earlier struck blade, pos…

County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
A secondary flake of dark grey brown flint which appears to have been removed by hard hammer from a nodule and re-used as a tool, probably in the later prehistoric period. The distal end is triangular with steep sides defined by long and short semi-abrupt retouch into a working point. The right side long edge has scaled low angle retouch on the ventral face to refine a cutting edge suggesting the tool may have had a variety of functions.

A curved flint blade of probable Neolithic to Bronze Age date, 63mm in length and struck from a patinated grey-brown flint with small patches of cortex on the distal end and dorsal surface. The distal end has been worked into a point with short abrupt retouch along the concave edge, suggesting possible use as a piercer. There is a second patch of retouch around a small notch near the proximal end, suggesting that the tool may have been multi functional.

A flint tool, taking the form of a serrated blade, probably dating from the Late Mesolithic to the Neolithic period, c. 7000-2351 BC. The blade is made from a tertiary flake of mid grey flint with a band of darker grey cutting diagonally through it. It is an elongated leaf shape in plan, and is slightly concave on one side and convex on the other. The dorsal face has a ridge running lengthwise slightly off centre. The flake is 36.16mm long, 16.58mm wide, and 0.75mm thick. It weighs 3.86 grams.
