Early Neolithic flint blade.
The blade is trapezoidal in shape and in cross-section. 2 flakes have been knapped from one face, one on each side.
One edge of the tool has been worked to give it a serrated edge. The tool has broken and so is incomplete- it would have been longer when it was made.

A good example of a late Neolithic to early Bronze Age 'horseshoe' type flint scraper.
From the flat platform area at the top, the sides angle downwards, creating a roughly trapezoidal top section; the lower two thirds of the implement have rounded edges. The surface of the tool is convex and has been extensively worked. Several vertical and angled flake removal scars mark a central ridge from which radiate downwards several other scars. The majority of narrow scars are concentrated around the bottom end of the tool, although there is evidence of finer retouch and grinding around al…

A good example of a flint 'thumbnail' type scraper of late Neolithic to early Bronze Age date.
At the top, the implement retains a portion of the flat core platform. From here the sides angle downwards and outwards, extending into a rounded bottom edge. The upper surface of the tool is convex, having been formed by the removal of a radiating pattern of narrow flakes. The majority of retouch is to the distal and right hand (as you look at it) edges. The reverse is flat and the bulb-of-percussion has been removed. The flint is light to mid grey in colour and has little surface patinat…

A flint End scraper of early Neolithic date.
The implement has been made from a large, thick, broad flake of roughly rectangular form. At one of the two narrow ends the tool retains a portion of the flat core platform. The convex upper surface of the tool has been formed by the removal of six long flakes, scars for which remain. Most of the retouch is to the angled and rounded end, where there are much smaller flake removal scars and fine retouch along the edge. The lower halves of the two long sides have also been subject to the removal of fine chippings, which has created serrated…

A triangular flint scraper of probable late Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. No exact parallel could be found for this piece and, although its form can be compared with that of some arrowheads of the period, it would appear to be too large to have performed this function.
The tool has been made from a broad flake. The convex upper surface has been formed by the removal of both broad and narrower flakes, which are aligned in several different directions, but mostly radiate outwards from the centre, angling downwards to the edges. All three sides show signs of having been finely re…

Flint snapped end scraper, semi-circular in plan, triangular in section and in profile. The proximal end and both sides of the dorsal face have been unimarignally retouched. There is also a nick in the right edge of the dorsal face, but this is probably due to damage and not deliberate.
The scraper may have been broken through use if enough pressure was applied to shear it off from the other half that was still held in the haft. Alternatively, it may have been broken since being deposited through coming into contact with agricultural machinery. See CORN-2286F2 and CORN-24A3D6 for si…

Flint leaf-shaped arrowhead, lozenge-shaped in plan, profile and triangular in section. The arrowhead has been worked on all margins of the dorsal face, but has been more extensively worked towards the distal end, particularly along the left margin. The proximal end has been waisted to be better used for hafting, and has been broken off above the bulb of percussion, on the ventral face.
The flint is a grey brown colour and translucent, and was probably knapped from a local beach pebble. The length to breadth ratio is about 3:2.

A flint scraper of probable Neolithic date. This implement is very simple in form, having been made from a large flake.
The flake is sub-circular in plan, has a convex upper surface and a flat underside. The upper surface retains much of the original cortex, the only exception being where the limited re-touching has occurred at one end, where the removal of six or seven narrow flakes has created a crude scraping edge. Interestingly, the level of patination on the underside of the tool suggests that this flake was of considerable antiquity when it was selected for use as a tool; in f…

Object type: DEBITAGE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Essex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Small waste flint, probably from tool knapping. The flint is quite small and of dark brown colour. The surface and edges are still crisp and seem hardly worn at all. Although there may be signs of retouch, there are no traces of patination or further working. Because of its size and doubtful origin it is classed here as waste flake or debitage.

A Neolithic polished flint axe. The axe is 152.2mm long, 62.6mm wide and 28mm thick. It weighs 338g. The axe is a tapering sub-rectangular shape and is ovoid in section with a flat facet at each end of the oval. The curved cutting edge is in good condition but there is some damage to the narrow end and a little of the end is missing. The damage at the haft end appears to be post depositional, but is not very recent, as the break is patinated. The axe patination in general is variable, the variations in colour being difference in patination rather than differences in the stone. The axe…

A flint axe of Neolithic date.
The axe is sub-rectangular in plan, tapering only slightly towards the rounded butt. It is pointed oval in section, the greatest thickness being at the centre point. The top half of one face and the the bottom part of the opposite face show that the flint surface was originally polished smooth. The fact that the remainder of the surfaces are lower than these smooth areas and show numerous flake removal scars suggests that the axe was re-worked at some point in its life. The flint is a heavily patinated mottled creamy-grey colour.
