Early to late Neolithic grey flint tertiary blade fragment with sub-parallel short acute retouch to both mesals forming edges that could be used for cutting or scraping. Second phase of retouch to the distal mesal to form a burin on the corner. Dates from c4000 to c2350 BC. The length is 17mm, width 12mm, thickness 3.5mm, and the weight is 0.77g.

A flint thumb-nail scraper of very late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age date c.2400-2100 BC. The flint is sub-rounded save for the striking platform edge. It has has short scaled abrupt retouch around the entirety of the rounded edges. The ventral face has been heavily rework to flatten the bulb of percussion with long invasive low angled retouch. Almost all the striking appears to be with heavy hammer technology. The scraper is a limid reddish yellow with mottling possibly from being exposed. The length is 27mm, the width is 14mm, thickness 13mm and the weight 3.77g.

Light grey flint tool, probably late Neolithic. Striking platform visible. Ventral side is slightly concave with prominent bulb of percussion at proximal end. Multiple flaking to dorsal side to create a curved blade profile with most of dorsal ridge having been removed and micro-touching along full extent of two main edges. Grey colour with slight blackening at proximal end, with some lighter inclusions throughout. Blade is incomplete having been snapped at distal end in antiquity. Length 25mm, Width 15mm, Thickness 4.5 mm. Weight 2g.

Neolithic white flint blade. Two adjoining pieces of the blade were found, the proximal end is absent. They have differing degrees of patination & the distal section has evidence of extensive retouching after the break. 1 - distal end; length 15mm, width 14mm, depth 2.5mm, weight 0.7g. 2 - middle section; length 16mm, width 7mm, depth 2.5mm, weight 0.4g. Dates to between c3500 & c1500 BC. Other lithics found in localised patches in the area by finder last year and by others throughout the last century or so.

Nearly opaque, pale grey grading to white, worked quartz or quartzite. It has probably been made by working a pebble removed or eroded out of the native millstone grit. The shape of the tool has been formed with 5 major flakes and a number of smaller ones. Two of the edges have been retouched by microflaking. The edges remains sharp. It was possibly mounted at the end of a stick, bone or similar. The photograph has been taken so that the two retouched edges are pointing up. The unusual choice of knapping material, given the local abundance of good quality chert, may have accorded this…

Black Pennines chert scraper possibly Late Mesolithic to Early Neolithic 6500-2900 BC. The chert is a dull black in colour with traces of the original white banding at the distal end. The surface reveals traces of weathering but this would be consistent with the original working of the weathered face for extraction. There are sources of black chert in the South Pennines. The chert is worked on 3 faces and the proximal point has been worked into a long narrow tapering point now broken suggesting a kind of boring tool. The length is 4mm in length and 2mm in width.

Lithic implement, probably a knife or scraper. It was knapped from light grey speckled flint and is hardly patinated. The dorsal face shows several large facets while the ventral face shows numerous waves/ripples. There are retouch marks forming a very ragged edge all around the edges on both the ventral and dorsal faces, although they are slightly more pronounced on the dorsal face.
