Mid blue-grey and pale grrey mottled flint with iron staining. The surfaces are semi-matt with incipient patination. There are numerous elongate flake removals from opposed ends. One platform has been truncated by the removal from the second platform, resulting in a wedge shaped end. There may have been an attempt to rejuvenate the second platform prior to discarding it.

Probable core, made from a thermally (frost) fractured piece of mottled grey suface flint with one edge hard hammer struck to detatch short, wide flakes. It bares a resemblance to a large scraper, although the scaping edge is quite irregular with three (now slightly) damaged sharp projections and is unlikely to have functioned as such. Probably Neolithic to Bronze Age.

The core was probably conical or discoidal in shape, having a D shape in profile, and a triangular shape in plan. It has a single striking platform visable on the ventral face, with a low diffuse bulb of percussion and closely spaced conchoidal ripple marks possibly indicative of the use of a soft bone hammer. The dorsal, face has evidence of three narrow parallel negative flake scars from the removal of previous blade like flakes. The flint has been re-patinated by fire to a milky white colour, …

The object utilises the fore-section (cutting edge) of the axehead, originally with a lenticular cross-section, faceted edges and curved cutting edge. Part of a steeply angled cross-body break remains visible. The fragment has been steeply re-flaked by removal of broad flakes along one edge and part of the other edge to form a keeled core edge. The flint is light grey and mottled and has a mid-gloss patina. A number of red-brown ferrous stains are present, most from agricultural plough scrapes. Date: Late Neol…

Mesolithic or Neolithic flint possible core: A knapped flint core of later Mesolithic date, circa 10000 - 2200BC. The core is sub semi-circular in plan and irregular in cross section. Only one terminal of the core remains and therefore is similar to a large rejuvenation flake. At the tip there is a small patch of cortex remaining. The removal scars indicate multi-directional working of long thin blades or flakes. The core measures 13.58mm long, 25.76mm wide, 15.59mm thick and weighs 5.52g. The core probably dates to the Mesolithic to early Neolithic periods (-10000 - -2200).

It appears to be too crude to have been used as a scraper and instead seems to have been a core from which small flakes were produced.
