Scaper or roughout axe fragment of probable later Neolithic date (2500-2100 BC). The scraper is knapped from a grey volcanic tuff. This scraper is sub-rectangular plan with distinctive humped faces. It is impossible to source scrapers such as these without a detailed petrological analysis of the rock. This would allow the original source of the rock to be established. However, the weathered colour of the tuff is typically similar to a number of axes in the collection of Kendal Museum and Tullie House Museum & Art Gallery, Carlisle, which have been petrographically tested as coming fro…

Tuff scraper of probable later Neolithic date (2500-2100 BC). The length is 75mm, width 70mm, the thickness is 10mm and the weight is 52.58g. The scraper is knapped from a grey volcanic tuff. The scraper is constructed out of the same material as Langdale axes. The scraper is sub-oval in plan with an extant bulb of percussion at the distal point and evidence of retouch along one edge. It is impossible to source scrapers such as these without a detailed petrological analysis of the rock. This would allow the original source of the rock to be established. However, the weathered colour o…

Scaper or polished axe fragment of probable later Neolithic date (2500-2100 BC). The length is 90mm, width 85mm and the thickness is 10mm. The scraper is knapped from a grey volcanic tuff. This scraper would have been, like many of the larger Langdale axes, sub-rectangular plan with distinctive humped faces. It is impossible to source scrapers such as these without a detailed petrological analysis of the rock. This would allow the original source of the rock to be established. However, the weathered colour of the tuff is typically similar to a number of axes in the collection of Kenda…

Complete 'D' shaped scraper knapped from grey black flint and dating from the late Neolithic period 2500-2100BC, possibly a Riley Type 5 (Bond, C. Plate 5.112 and 5.113). The scraper is complete, made from a short, round flake with retouch along the total distal and halfway up the two mesial edges. Both the ventral and dorsal faces are very smooth with even ripple marks. Scrapers could have many uses from scraping the fat off animal skins, to scraping the bark off arrow shafts. The length is 42mm, width 34mm, thickness 6mm and the weight is 14.21g.
