A piece of flint debitage probably from Neolithic Blade production dating to, c. 4000-2400 BC. The object is worked from a tertiary flake of almost matte dark orange brown flint with light grey splotches. The flake is sub-triangular in plan and cross section. The striking platform survives as does a medium sized bulb of percussion from which conchoidal ripples emanate.  Two negative removal scars from the same direction are present on the dorsal face. There is no sign of retouch. The object is 47.5mm long, 23.9mm wide, 8.8mm thick and weighs 9.53 grams. A single …

One flake of flint debitage of probable Mesolithic date (c. 8000 - 4000 BC). The piece is a tertiary piece of flint that is translucent dark brown colour with a glossy patina.  The flake is sub-rectangular in plan with irregular edges. The piece has at least three earlier flake removals on its dorsal surface struck in the same direction as this flake, while the reverse has none. The ventral surface has very well defined conchoidal ripples emanating from its upper edge which has been crushed. It is possible that the long sides have been retouched  slightly …

A complete flint flake of lower Paleolithic date. Jason Gibbons (Norfolk Historic Environment Service, pers. com.) writes: 'Hard hammer struck flake found in situ at Happisburgh site 1, partially imbedded in laminated silts with only the platform and bulb protruding. The flint is glossy black and in exceptionally fresh condition with edges still sharp, the platform retains a small amount of thin, weathered cortex to one side, the other side has two flake scars and the blow to remove this flake from the core falls on the larger of the two, essentially the platform has had the cortex re…

Early - Middle Neolithic flint flake dating to the period c. 4000 - 2351 BC. Struck off a tertiary flake, no cortex remains on the dorsal face. The ventral face exhibits a high bulb of percussion and pronounced bulbar scar with closely spaced conchoidal ripple marks. The dorsal surface exhibits three sub-parallel negative flake scars. No retouch is visible. The flint is a mottled light grey.

Approx. 32 blade-like flakes, also hard hammer struck and mostly unretouched, some bear edge damage from light use or post depositional disturbance. Mostly unpatinated mottled grey and dark grey flint, a few are slightly patinated light grey.

Tertairy hard hammer struck flake from a multi platform core. Made from partially white patinated broad banded light and mid-grey flint with some recent damage to parts of the edges. This flake appears to be an angle correcting removal, with the blow passing through the core; an "outre passe" flake removing a thick mass of flint towards the distal end.
