A complete flake from a prepared core of Late Neolithic to Early Iron Age dating (3300 BC to 1000 BC). The flake is sub rectangular in shape and a mid brown colour. Part of a striking platform is present at the top of the flake. Retouch is present along both edges and can be classified as short, sub-parallel, semi-abrupt. It measures 40.6 mm in length, 24.9 mm maximum width, and 6.0 mm maximum thickness. It weighs 7.2 g. Flakes like this from prepared cores could date from between the Late Neolithic through to the Early Iron Age. This flake is prob…

A Mesolithic or Neolithic flake knapped from flint. The flake is an elongated triangle in plan with a triangular section. The dorsal surface has two vertical scars and the ventral surface has has deep ripples. The flint is a mottled light grey/blue colour which is a developed patina, but there are scars along the lateral edge which are more recent as they are not covered with the patina. The fresh flint is a pale white/grey colour. It is uncertain whether the scars on the lateral edge are due to damage or is re-touch. It measures 35.6mm in length, 14.7mm in width, 4.75mm thick and weig…

A knapped secondary flake knapped from an flint which is now a mottled grey colour. The ventral surface has a bulb of percussion, bulbar scars and concentric ripples. The dorsal surface has small feint scars near the edges which are not re-touch, but small transverse flakes. The lateral and distal edges have large flake scars which have been bisected at each end. This is probably a core rejuvenation flake. The flake weighs 4.9g and measures 26.61mm long, 22.48mm wide and 10.62mm thick. This is probably a core rejuvenation flake dating to the Neolithic to early Bronze Age (-2500 to -1500).
