A complete flint blade or possible petit tranchet arrowhead dating to the Neolithic period (c. 4000-2100 BC). The object has been formed from a tertiary reddish-brown flint flake. The object is roughly triangular in plan and D-shaped in cross-section. Both faces have scaled, covering retouch, becoming more abrupt on the left hand edge of the dorsal face. The overall dimensions are as follows: 22.40mm in length, 16.59mm in width, 4.01mm in thickness and 1.44g in weight.

Early Neolithic (c. 4,000 to 2351 BC) microlith knapped from a mottled dark grey flint hich has a waxy texture. The dorsal surface has two vertical scars, and there is a trace of a white patina suggesting the it has been made from an older flake.A lateral edge has retouch along its length which is abrupt and short. The distal end appears to have been purposely truncated. It measures 34.46mm long, 10.67mm wide, 5.98mm thick and weighs 2.58g. This is probably an early Neolithic serrated blade (Butler, 2005;130).

Mesolithic to Neolithic (c. 7000 to 2350BC) debitage: A blade knapped from flint. The blade is trapezoidal in section. The dorsal surface has three vertical scars and the ventral surface has traces of conchoidal ripples. The proximal end is missing, but the patina which covers the surface also covers the break. One on lateral edge there is a small portion of damage rather than re-touch revealing a dark grey flint. It measures 31.88mm long, 14.11mm wide, 3.39mm thick and weighing 2.17g. The blade probably dates to the Mesolithic to Neolithic periods, c. 7000 to 2350BC.

Probable early Neolithic (-3500 to -2900) serrated blade or denticulate: The knapped mid grey/brown coloured flint artefact appears to have been formed from a flake which is triangular in section. One lateral edge has been re-touched forming notches (denticulations), mainly knapped from the dorsal surface. The other lateral edge has a wide notch deleveoped with re-touch from the ventral surface. The tip, distal end , is rounded due to re-touch on the dorsal surface. The blade weighs 4.7g and measures 30.3mm long, 18.88mm wide and 8.79mm thick. The blade is probably early Neolithic …

Neolithic serrated blade: The blade has been knapped from a mottled mid brown coloured flint. The blade is a sub-rectangle in plan and trapezoidal in section. The distal end is obliquely angled and has a patch of cortex remaining. The longer lateral edge has re-touch on the dorsal surface, with a few re-touch scars on the ventral surface. This edge feels blunt and not a good quality serrated edge. The length of the blade is 60.99mm long, 27.4mm wide and 6.36mm thick. It weighs 15.3g. The serrated blade probably dates to the early Neolithic period (-4000 to -3500).

A Neolithic or early Bronze Age knapped blade or knife. The flint is knapped from a mottled mid to dark brown flint. The ventral surface has a single negative flake scar, and conchoidal rings, but the bulb of percussion is not visible. The dorsal surface has three vertical negative flake scars with re-touch along one side. The other side some re-touch but also some recent abrasion has taken place. The upper portion appears to have been notched to form a possible haft. It measures 73mm long and 22.68mm wide. It weighs 14.18g. The blade or knife is probably dated to the Neolithic to ear…

A probable knapped flint serrated blade or denticulate. The blade appears to have been formed from a flake which developed a patina, and the one lateral edge has been re-touched forming notches (denticulations). The flake is an elongated triangle in plan, with the proximal terminal missing. The ventral and dorsal surfaces have developed a light grey/brown coloured patina. However the break at the proximal terminal and the re-touching on the lateral edge of the dorsal surface reveals a mid brown coloured flint. The blade weighs 4.6g. The blade is probably early Neolithic (-3500 to -…

A possible knapped flint Neolithic blade or fabricator. The flint is a mottled red/brown colour. In plan the blade is an sub elongated pointed oval. The dorsal surface has two linear negative scars with run the length of the blade. Both terminals are slightly rounded, which appears to be due to wear. Both side edges have re-touch, however one edge also shows signs of more recent damage. The ventral surface also has re-touch and flaking which covers more of the surface, particularly at the terminals, compared to the dorsal surface. In section the blade is a sub-triangle. It measures 58.…

The object is a knapped blade, possibly a notched blade from the Neolithic period. The blade is knapped from a mottled mid grey coloured flint. In plan the blade is a sub-rectangle. The section is trapezoidal in shape. The upper edge is broken and has therefore lost its bulb of percussion. The lower edge is obliquely angled with cortex remaining. One of the long sides has a possible notch, forming a sub semi-circular indentation. The blade measures 49.1mm long, 22.98mm wide and 4.46mm thick. It weighs 6.62g.

The object is possibly a blade, but then has been re-used as re-touch occurs along one edge. The blade has been knapped from flint. The blade probably dates to the Neolithic period, -4000 to –2500. In section the blade has a triangular section. The blade is incomplete as there is a break, but this break is not recent as the blue/grey coloured patina which is on the suface ofthe blade also covers the break. One long edge has small re-touch scars which have removed the patina, suggesting the blade has been re-used at a later date. On the reverse the bulb of percussion is situ…
