A complete Neolithic/ early Bronze Age sub-pyramidal single stricking platform core, dating c3300-1800 BC. Long narrow and broad flakes have been removed by probably unidirectional working from the broad flat striking platform. One side has the cortex remaining. The formation of patina had begun, producing a pale grey surface with a few spots of iron staining on most sides.  It has been battered along its edges, leaving a series of edge-on impact chips to reveal the underlying tint of dark grey flint.  Measurements: 39.32mm long; 41.6…

A late Neolithic to early Bronze Age bipolar flint core dating to 3300 BC - 1600 BC. It has been flaked from both upper and lower ends around its circumference. One face show linear blade flake removal scars, the other face shows broad flake scars. Small areas of cortex remain. The flint is semi-opaque, mid-grey with a mid-gloss patina. Date: A Late Neolithic to early Bronze Age date has been assigned to the core due to the large amount of objects found in the vicinity with this date, however bipolar cores are usually dated as Mesolithic. Dimensions: 51.5 mm x 44.8 mm x 25.0 mm Wei…

A probable Bronze Age flint core, probably dating to c. 2400-800 BC. The core is sub-rectangular in plan and C-shaped in cross section, due to an incomplete cylindrical fossil running longitudinally along the ventral face. This void retains cortex, but is flanked by patinated facets; neither displays conchoidal ripples and may be natural. The dorsal face exhibits removal scars from multiple sub-parallel blade-like removals, struck from both platforms, but in two groups separated by an area with surviving cortex. The facets at the top and bottom of the core fragment are patinated, more…

A Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age flint core, probably dating to 3300-800 BC. The core is an irregular polyhedron in shape, with a sub-trapezoidal cross section. It is of a grey-brown flint with no surviving cortex. Irregularly sized flakes have been struck from multiple platforms, with the core probably turned to utilise previous removal scars as a platform, with some indication of platform preparation. Several removals appear hinged. The implement is 40.86mm long, 24.30mm wide, 32.42mm thick and weighs 38.49g. The core is relatively small and has several small blades remov…
