A later Neolithic flint arrowhead of oblique type struck from a tertiary flake of brown flint, c. 3000-2100 BC.
The cross section is asymmetrical and triangular with a flat and a convex face. One long edge has retouch along what appears to be the line of a break to refine a blunted edge running to the sharp point. The base has long low angle sub parallel retouch and is slanted.

A large later Neolithic oblique arrowhead, 56.7mm in length, made from a struck tertiary flake of dark brown flint. The arrowhead is triangular with a long point and a single barb at the rear on one side which has a concave rear edge. There is an incomplete tang at the centre of the rear end. The long side with the barb has bifacial intrusive low angle scaled retouch all along it. The opposing long side feathers to a convex edge and is unworked.

A Neolithic flint point, probably an arrowhead of oblique type, 44.1mm in length and made from a struck tertiary flake of dark brown flint. The arrowhead is triangular with a long point which has been refined by fine abrupt retouch along one side of the tip and bifacially worked low angle and semi abrupt scaled retouch along the rest of the length of the blade. The rear end is slightly convex with a small patch of low angle scaled retouch, perhaps to blunt it for hafting.

Incomplete tiny leaf-shaped arrowhead, of Green, H. S. (1980) type 4 A, of slightly lighter patinated dark grey flint, the very tip of the base of this point is broken transversely. The dorsal face is very finely and invasively pressure flaked so some of the flake scars overlap at the centre of this face, the ventral face is hardly worked at all, just a few pressure fakes to form the point, this is probably due to the natural curvature of a struck flake; only flakes need to be removed from the curved parts as an arrowhead must be straight in profile to fly in a straight path, the …

A triangular worked flint implement, possibly a late Neolithic flint transverse / chisel arrowhead, 32mm in length and made from a light brown flint. The cross section is triangular, the bulb of percussion is towards the wide end and the narrow end terminates in a break. There is secondary working around the edges but this is poorly defined and partially obscured by battering damage. The wide end (the cutting edge if mounted as a chisel arrowhead) is slightly concave and defined with a number of larger intrusive and low angle removals.
