A curved flint blade of probable Bronze Age date, 53.8mm in length and struck from a secondary flake of grey flint. The distal end has been worked into a triangular point with short semi-abrupt retouch on both sides. The flake has cortex on both faces at the proximal end suggesting that it derived from a nodule with a thick cortical layer.

A Mesolithic retouched flint blade dating from 10,000 - 4000 BC. It is a tertiary blade struck on semi-translucent dark brown flint. It is rectangular with a double dorsal ridge. The distal end has some scaled, abrupt, short retouch, perhaps to form a scraping edge, and there is some sporadic retouch or edge damage on the long edges, with more careful working at the proximal ends of the sides. This is also abrupt, scaled and short. There is also a small removal right across the ventral face at the proximal end. The blade is 38.1mm long, 13.9mm wide, 4.3mm thick and weighs 2.64g.
