A flint lithic implement, possibly a blade, dating from the Neolithic to Bronze Age period, c. 4000 BC-1800 BC. The blade is narrow and sub-rectangular in plan with a pointed tip. The blade has a serrated edge but the facets and the dorsal face show no signs of a strucked flint apart from a small notch at one end. The serrations could be due to plough damage but the flint seems to show signs of a considered design. The flint is a light - dark grey with patches of orange colouration. Measurements: Length, 37.24mm; Width, 10.51mm; Thickness, 4.35mm; Weight, 1.6g

Flint projectile point, possibly a spearhead rather than a large arrowhead, with unimarginal worked edges on all margins of the dorsal face. There is continuous retouch around the entire margin, with a large flake removed on both faces at the proximal end, removing part of the bulb of percussion on the ventral face and creating a thinner profile for hafting. The distal end is pointed and slightly to the right of the medial line. The vental face is untouched, unlike various piercing tools of the time, apart from the flake removed to facilitate hafting. The flint is a mottled grey to bu…

Flint saw, trapezoidal in plan, rectangular in profile and triangular in section. There is finer retouch on the right margin of the dorsal face, creating the serrated edge used for sawing, and the left margin is backed for handling. The proximal end has been snapped off at the bulb of percussion and there is a layer of cortex remaining on the dorsal face at both the proximal and at the distal end, suggesting that this is a primary flake. These two patches of cortex are connected by the medial ridge which runs almost parallel with the left margin, as it is also slightly curved. The dis…

The scatter concentrates towards a bend in a brook with the closest approach foiled by field boundary and country lane. Back from the stream the flints peter out to nearly zero then increase to where the stream is crossed again and the 850+ scatter recorded as CORN-3A0FF2 etc on the other side.
