Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Somerset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Two pieces of flint debitage, of uncertain Prehistoric date. Neither flake appears to have been retouched. The first piece of debitage is a secondary blade fragment, 24.0mm long by 9.8mm wide and with three parallel removal scars running down its dorsal face. Both these scars and the removal of this flake appear to have been struck from the same direction, and although the bulk of percussion has not survived. Made of a translucent red/brown flint. It is 3.1mm thick and weights 0.70g. The second piece is a primary flake fragment, 17.8mm long by 15.0mm wide and with no evidence fo…

Object type: GUNFLINT
Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Somerset
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint post medieval gunflint dating to the period c. AD 1650 - 1850. The gunflint is square in plan and trapezoidal in cross-section. It exhibits scaled abrupt retouch along three edges to trim the flake and scaled semi-abrupt reouch on the fourth side to create a wedge shape along one edge. There is evidence of crushing, possibly sustained during use, along the thinnest edge. The flint is a semi-translucent dark grey. The gunflint measures 16.67mm in length, 17.02mm in width, is 5.82mm thick, tapering to 1.42mm in thickness and weighs 2.76g.

A probable gunflint of post medieval date (c. AD 1600 - 1850). The gunflint is struck off a secondary flake and retains c. 30% cortex on the dorsal face. The gunflint is D-shaped in plan and triangular in cross-section. It exhibits a combination of long and short scaled semi-abrupt retouch along both mesal edges and some evidence of crushing, possibly from use. The ventral surface exhibits a series of closely spcaed conchoidal ripple marks, however, there is no bulb of percussion present. The flint is semi-translucent and dark brown in colour. The gunflint measures 19.78mm in lengt…

A post-medieval or modern gunflint from a flintlock musket. The flint is broadly rectangular in plan. The ventral surface is smooth and relatively flat; the bulb of percussion is absent. The dorsal face is bevelled on all sides with a flat centre. There is some retouching or chipping to the upper edge on the ventral face. There is a notch to one side and an indent on the dorsal face, probably from being gripped. The flint is a mid- grey colour with paler mottling. It is 20.2mm by 17.2mm by 4.9mm and weighs 2.60 grams.

Object type: HANDAXE
Broad period: PALAEOLITHIC

Lithic implement described as 'a small, incomplete Acheulean handaxe dating to the Lower Paleolithic. Bifacially worked on a tertiary flake. The axe appears to have been roughly heart-shaped originally, with a rounded butt, curving inwards slightly, and a slightly pointed tip at the opposite end. A curved section is missing from one side of the tip. This appears to have occured following deposition as the edges of the break are still sharp. Both faces are largely covered with flaking scars. There is further finer, but irregular, retouch to some of the edges. Both faces have become smo…

Large flint nodule from which flakes have been removed. On one face there is a very worn natural fracture, probably frost shatter. Flakes have been removed from the core, working mostly from one end. This end appears to have been prepared with flakes removed from the frost shattered side to create a platform to work off. The flakes are large and some appear possibly blade like. There also appear to be some natural fractures and chips around the edge, obscuring some details of the original working. It is 86.3mm long, 72.5 wide and 19.7 thick and weighs 157 grams.
