Brittle grey cloudy flint of mediocre quality
Possible debitage. Irregular flint with fracture surfaces on all sides; these include one long scar which may indicate the hard hammer removal of a long flake; however, the other sides are struck and broken irregularly, and the sharp arises between these impact scars are so sharp as to suggest a recent origin through plough strike. Suggested date: Unknown, Neolithic to Modern, 3500BC-2000AD.
Length: 53mm, Weight: 23.32gms.

Flint; one fragment (a) is semi-translucent toffee coloured brown with cortex on one face, the other two (b-c) a pale grey.
Debitage. Three flint chips (a-c), all from an area where flint is not believed to occur naturally. The brown flint (a) may have retouch - or incidental damage - on two of its edges, while (c) may be a small flake of working waste. Lengths: a) 22.1mm, b) 20.2mm, and c) 15.6mm.

Flint scraper. A small thumbnail scraper with cortex remaining on its dorsal surface and with covering angled scalar retouch executed from the ventral aspect. The struck surfaces are covered by dense creamy patina, suggesting prolonged exposure to a calcareous environment, and with orange spotting which may suggest its subsequent incorporation in gravels. The form is usually ascribed to the Early Bronze Age but the condition of the flint might point to an earler date. Suggested date: Unknown, Late Mesolithic to Early Bronze Age,7000-1600 BC.

Dark grey flint with cortex spot, scraper. A thick flake with broad parallel flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a bulbar ventral surface. Invasive angled scalar retouch executed from the dorsal aspect follows the long curving edge. The material might hint at an earlier date, the trimming of the dorsal side would be apt to Neolithic work, while the retouch may suggest a later Neolithic or Early Bronze Age date. Suggested date: Unknown, Late Mesolithic to Early Bronze Age, 7000-1600 BC.

Red-brown flint with cortex, core.

Flint with reformed cortex possible scraper. A long irregular flake with a broad flake struck from its dorsal side and with a bulb at one end of a gently undulating ventral surface. Cortex has reformed over a rounded end, where possible scalar retouch executed from the ventral aspect also appears. The opposite end is lightly battered. A dense creamy patina overall suggests the object has endured long exposure to a calcareous environment; orange spots might suggest its incorporation in gravel. The re-formed cortex might suggest an earlier date than the apparently casual working would c…

Flint possible debitage. Four small irregular flakes, all with flakes struck from their dorsal sides; three retains elements of a bulbar ventral surface while the fourth and longest has a tiny bulb at one end of a concave ventral surface. A dense creamy patina suggests all have endured prolonged exposure to a calcareous environment after their deposition.

Pale grey flint debitage. Seven small chips, all probably waste from flint knapping using hard hammer with narrow or parallel flakes struck from their dorsal sides and with flat, concave or undulating ventral surfaces, some with bulbs. A pale milky patina on all but one chips may suggest they were subsequently exposed for a limited period to a calcareous environment; not, however, to the more marked degree typical of most other flint reported from the vicinity.

Dark grey flint with cortex pebble, possible plough pebble. Over half of a water-rounded flint cobble with a single flat face which is rounded at its edges, smoothed, and bears unidirectional scoring. The finder kindly suggests a role as a sharpener. Dr Kevin Leahy regards these objects as plough pebbles, which would be mounted on the leading edge of the wooden mould board to reduce its erosion during use, the markings on the protruding ‘working’ face of the pebble arising from long use until its displacement. The heavy plough was an introduction of later Iron Age to Early …

Dark brown flint nodule with cortex, scraper. A round flint pebble or nodule of high quality, with invasive angled scalar retouch which has removed eight large long and mostly parallel flakes in an episode of skilled and perfunctory working from a single direction. The cutting edge produced has seen some use as evidenced by its light battering. The rapid removal of larger flakes might usually suggest a late date; however, the selection of this material, which is imported to the area, might rather point to an earlier date and to its economical rather than haphazard working.

Grey flint with cortex debitage. An irregular small chunk with broad flakes of cortex and a longer narrower flake trimmed by hard hammer from the dorsal side and with a rippled ventral surface.

Orange flint with iron-stain spotting, core, as kindly identified by the finder. A chunk with opposed concave faces and with scars from the probably unidirectional removal of long parallel flakes using a now restricted striking platform. The staining may suggest the object was subsequently incorporated into gravels. Suggested date: Late Palaeolithic, 40000-10000 BC
