Almost a complete barbed and tanged arrowhead of Green, H.S. (1980) Green low type, though the barbs are around the same length as the tang (Green lows have longer barbs than the tang) the general form of the notches and the slightly drooping barbs fit within that group, there is a tiny amount of recent damage; one corner of the (rectangular) tang is missing as is the very tip if the point, otherwise it is in pristine condition, the flint is glossy, dark brown/grey with a very slight misty patination to parts of the surface, both faces are completely covered with invasive pressure flak…

Tertairy ?soft hammer struck flake with the bulb of percussion removed and neatly trimmed to a triangular shape by direct, steep percussion predominantly to the dorsal face, of slightly mottled dark grey flint with no patination. This is very likely to be an unfinished arrowhead, the profile is very straight for a struck flake, and the thickness is within the perfect range (4.6 mm), the trimming has evened out the curve already, the flake seems to have been worked into a blank then misplaced before the piece was extensively pressure flaked to its final shape, it is very likely this was…

Oblique arrowhead made from a tertiary flake of fairly thick cross section, of , of glossy unpatinated grey flint with a paler, coarse inclusion to one face, one lateral edge is left as struck and sharp, the opposing side is bifacially retouched to form a point, the retouch is hard hammer struck rather than pressure flaked, the base is asymmetrically retouched in the same manner, forming a slight barb to the shaper of the two sides. The point is damaged with a long, thin flake running down the edge of the point; this is most likely from being shot and the point encountering a hard surf…

Complete geometric microlith, of mid grey flint with misty paler grey patination, of Jacobi, R. (1978) Group 4, obliquely, finely, and very steeply retouched (c. 90 degrees to the faces) to form a convex “back” to the also convex sharp edge opposing the blunt retouch, the whole flint giving a lenticular plan form with an isosceles triangle cross section. Mesolithic, possibly late due to the small size, 7,000 to 4,000 BC.
