Object type: BLADE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Cheshire West and Chester
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Mesolithic tertiary mottled dark-grey/green/black flint blade. Some patination at distal end. Pronounced bulb of percussion on the ventral surface suggests the flake was removed from the core by hard hammer. There has been flaking on the dorsal at the proximal end to reshape it. There is retouch to the entirity of both medial edges. The concave edge has two notches worked into it at the proximal end. There is also a degree of retouch on both the proximal & distal ends. Dates from c10000 to c4000 BC. Length is 40mm, width 24mm, height 8mm, & weight 5.69g.

Object type: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Cheshire West and Chester
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Flint implement dating from the Mesolithic to the Neolithic period, (8300BC-2100BC). The object is sub-oval in plan and D-shaped in cross section. On one face of the object the cortex remains. The opposite face is covered in irregular facets. The pebble has been split in two, the force of which has probably caused the irregular breaks. It is however possible that the object was also utilised as a tool. The object is toffee brown in colour.

Broad period: POST MEDIEVAL
County: Cheshire West and Chester
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A post-medieval/modern gun-flint from a flintlock musket. The flint is rectangular in plan and cross-section with sloping edges to give it a trapezoidal side view. The flint is mid-grey in colour. The flintlock was introduced in the middle of the 16th century but it was not until the reign of William III that the flintlock became the main regulation firearm for the British Army. The knapped flint was used within the musket mechanism to produce a spark and would last between 20-25 shots before it had to be replaced, ' Clive Bond, 0.

Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Cheshire West and Chester
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A grey flint, possibly a naturally created blank but with signs of surface working at one edge, perhaps to aid holding or even hafting, and retouch and damage along the longer continuous edge. The object is sub-oval in plan and sub-triangular in cross section. The retouch along the long edge is short, sub-parallel and semi-abrupt. Dimensions: 30mm in length, 11mm in width, 11mm thick, 4.60g Ron Cowell, Curator of Prehistoric Archaeology, Museum of Liverpool notes: This suggests a cutting type tool which would fit most easily into the following technology. The flint belongs to…

A lithic implement of prehistoric date. The object is triangular in plan and is a light creamy brown colour. Ron Cowell, Curator of Prehistoric Archaeology, Museum of Liverpool notes: Triangular piece of miscellaneous-type flint I haven't seen much of in the region. There is some possible working around the thinner butt end, with a vertical break on the reverse side removing where the bulb of percussion may have been. There are some longitudinal fine scars along the right hand side, although difficult to tell whether these were put on before the piece was removed from the nodule or…
