A Neolithic to Bronze Age struck flint scraper, c.4000-2000 BC. This tool was struck from mottled light grey flint. It is formed on a round, natural flake, probably a pot lid fracture, which is fairly rounded. There is cortex on part of the dorsal face, and the other part is a patinated previous removal scar, probably also from a pot lid fracture. The retouch is on the ventral face along about a quarter of the perimeter. It is short, abrupt and sub-parallel.

It has bifacial invasive, low-angle, scaled retouch on one side (the concave side). It is 33.6mm long, 15.8mm wide and 3.8mm thick. 1.9g. Some glue adheres to one face, where the flint has previously been mounted post-recovery.

Grey flint with off-white patch near its tip, probable fabricator fragment. A thick pointed flake of plano-convex section with large flakes initially trimmed from its dorsal side and a flat ventral surface. Invasive angled scalar retouch executed from the dorsal aspect is carried over most of the surface; this was perhaps interrupted by removal of a further flake from the butt end of the tool. Though this need not have interfered with its function, it does not bear wear suggesting it to be the result of a deliberate modification. Suggested date: Early Bronze Age, 2350-1600 BC Length: …

Grey-brown semi-translucent flint with re-formed cortex strip, scraper. Broad and narrow parallel flakes have been struck from the dorsal surface while the ventral side is bulbar next to the re-cortified striking platform with a concave outer edge.

Grey-buff flint scraper. A thick flake with two large flakes struck from its dorsal side and a bulb at the narrower end of a slightly concave ventral surface.

County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Mottled grey and brown flint core. A small chunk which bears multiple scars from multangular hard hammer working. There is more than one episode represented, as one struck facet had accumulated a light patina before it was partially removed by later working.

County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Grey flint debitage. Two small chunks and a flake fragment with broad flakes struck from their dorsal surfaces and with a bulb and concave ventral surface [the largest, length 35mm], a markedly concave ventral surface [the intermediate, length 25mm] and a flat ventral surface [the smallest, length 16.4mm]. The smallest flake also bears invasive angled scalar retouch and might be a fragment lost from a larger blade. The lack of patina might suggest these objects to have been immediately incorporated into a sealed context. Suggested date: Neolithic, 4000-2350 BC. Combined Weight: 9.29gms

Object type: BACKED BLADE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Pale brown  semi-translucent flint, possibly collected from the East Coast, possible backed blade. A small thin flake with a single long flake trimmed from its dorsal side and a slightly concave ventral surface which is faintly rippled; bulb lost to a recent chip. A re-formed possibly marine-derived cortex has been retained along one long side. A single thin spall from thew opposite long edge appears to have created a sharp if ephemeral cutting edge. Probably made for a single task as there is scant evidence of use wear. Suggested date: Early Neolithic, 4000-3500 BC Length: 27.8m…

County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Grey flint with cortex, core fragment. Probably part of a pyramidal core, with narrow parallel flakes removed by unidirectional working from a flat platform; one or two sides appear to have parted from the object during this activity. The penultimate episode seems to have been the removal of another thin narrow flake from the left [as illustrated] side of the striking platform. The lack of subsequent patination might suggest this object to have then been incorporated into a sealed deposit. Suggested date: possibly Late Mesolithic, 7000-4000 BC.

Pale grey flint possible borer. A thin flake with broad flakes struck from its dorsal side and a faintly rippled ventral surface. . The retouch, probably angled scalar an, may have defined a small protruding point. A dense creamy patina may suggest a subsequent period of exposure to a calcareous environment.

Pale grey flint with cortex, core. A thick flake with broad flakes removed three quarters of the way around, with some but not all removals working from a broad flat oval striking platform.

Pale grey flint scraper. A small thumbnail scraper with broad flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a concave ventral surface.
