Grey-brown flint with cortex, debitage. An irregular flake from the outer surface of a nodule with a bulbar ventral surface. Possibly formed by frost action in ‘pot lid’ form, but very roughly trimmed with a hard hammer and bearing at least two drafts of angled scalar retouch executed from the dorsal aspect.

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: …

Dark grey flint with cortex, possible scraper.

Opaque grey flint with cortex, scraper. A sub-rhomboid chunk with an undulating ventral surface from which at least one and probably several large flakes have been struck, and with invasive angled scalar retouch across a limited central part of its dorsal surface. A convex long edge bears the scars from battering; it is possible that the dorsal retouch permitted a firm grip when using this putative working edge. The finder kindly notes that, as the Isle of Axholme is an area away from chalky subsoils, any flint found in the vicinity must have been imported. Suggested date: Early Bronze…

Dark grey flint possibly collected from the East Coast, possible point. A thick dentiform chunk bears a concave scar on its dorsal side, and ripples arising from the same impact on its ventral surface. A powdery ?marine-deposited patina? was removed by this draft, and also by short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect which follows a sub-triangular projecting point. The appearance of retouch along a long edge may be misleading, as most of the scars appear to result from edge-on impacts.

Grey flint with cortex spot, fabricator. A finger-shaped flake with covering multangular scalar hard hammer retouch across all surfaces, producing a ragged rhomboid or lentoid section. Patches of misty patina may suggest the object has subsequently endured a period of exposure to a calcareous environment while orange spots may hint at rolling in gravel. Suggested date: Early Bronze Age, 2350-1600 BC. Length: 59mm, Width: 24mm, Thickness: 14.1mm, Weight: 18.77gms

Dark grey flint scraper. A thumbnail scraper, as kindly identified by the finder, with covering angled scalar retouch across the dorsal side and with a bulb at one end of the ventral surface. Light scalar retouch at the bulb was executed from the ventral aspect, next to a striking platform at that edge. The flint retains its dark colour, perhaps hinting at the recent exposure of this object from a sealed context. Suggested date: Early Bronze Age, 2350-1600 BC Length: 26mm, Width: 24.1mm, Thickness: 10.2mm, Weight: 6.46gms
