County: North Yorkshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A small flint flake, possibly a borer, with abrupt retouch along the mesial portion of the right edge with relatively long scars. The flint increases in thickness on this side toward the proximal end, where there is evidence of a fracture/breakage. There is also semi-abrupt short retouch along the opposite edge on both faces, perpendicular to that of the other side and meeting in a point. From the ventral face, the point at the distal end is broken, with the top missing, and retouch on the left side is more abrupt with some extremely fine retouch present near to the promixal end.

Object type: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Cheshire East
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A bi-polar core from Boulder Clay deposited in the last Ice Age, probably worked on an anvil, as indicated by the deep negative scar on the other side and the damage at each end of the piece. Late Mesolithic (between 7400-4000 BC) and similar to material, according to Ron Cowell of the Museum of Liverpool, from sites east of Liverpool or on the Wirral. Possibly the remnants of a larger pebble used to fashion smaller blades by striking, in this case on an anvil.

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…

Object type: FLAKE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Dark grey flint flake with broad striking platform and prominent bulb of percussion and bulbar scar, suggesting removal from a large flint nodule with a hard hammer such as a pebble. The flint is good quality and may most likely be of river gravel origin. The flake has been broken laterally and the irregular damage along the upper left hand side may be natural post-depositional damage rather than through use, although the latter is not impossible particularly if the lateral break to the flake was deliberate, although there is no way of knowing whether this was the case. This is dis…

Two pieces, probably from the same small blue flint nodule. One a small flake waste removed from the lower part of the nodule with some cortex (piece 1), and another small flake with more cortex remaining on the back but with evidence of fine edge damage and smoothing on the flint interior edge probably from use (piece 2). Piece 1: 12mm in length, 12mm in width, 3.5mm thick, 0.55g Piece 2: 18mm in length, 13mm in width, 5mm thick, 1.50g Two pieces of flint which look like very rough waste, (piece 3 & 4) with evidence of small narrow flake scars having previously come from thi…

Object type: CORE
Broad period: UNKNOWN
County: Cheshire East
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A rounded flint core of unknown dating from Paeleolithic to Neolithic. The flint is of a dark grey with light grey inclusions. One face has an oxidised patination. The core appears to have been struck in several areas. This may have been caused through human activity or through natural causes. The finders have reported finding flint flakes and a possible flint arrowhead in the area which may suggest this was formed by human activity. The object was found during a fieldwalking exercise and so was discovered on the surface. It woud be unusual for such a large piece of core to …

Object type: BARBED AND TANGED ARROWHEAD
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Staffordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint barbed and tanged arrowhead dating to the early Bronze Age or Beaker Period (c. 2400-1500 BC). This arrowhead has been knapped from a dark grey-black piece of flint and there is no cortex remaining. It is broadly sub-triangular in plan and lentoid in cross section. It is broadly symmetrical in shape, with two notches chipped into the base of the flint to separate the barbs and the tang, both barbs are still intact. Both the long sides of the arrowhead have been precisely retouched to create sharp edges.There is a small chip on one edge of the arrowhead. The object is bif…

Record ID: LVPL-A937CD
Object type: CORE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Cheshire East
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint core of Mesolithic to early Neolithic date. The object is conical with one platform at the top of the object and parallel striking down one face. Ripples are visible where one flake has been removed and at least four blades. On the opposite face an area of cortex remains to the side of which the core is a mottled blueish-white and yellow colour due to discolouration from the soil. Where the tools have been removed the flint core is a dark brownish grey colour. Dimensions: 73mm in length, 45mm in width, 22mm thick, 98.6g in weight

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Reddish brown flint blade. Probably local to the area where it was found, originating from the glacial clay or perhaps river gravels. It is a by-product of the shaping of a larger irregular lump of flint, so that regular shaped pieces can be taken off it to work into tools. The longer than narrow, parallel sided shape is characterised as a blade. In some circumstances the blades are then 'retouched' by finely working the edge in a deliberate way to produce tools or sometimes they can be just used as they are without further working, for cutting or scraping. This one does not betra…

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Brownish yellow flint flake. It is a by-product of the shaping of a larger irregular lump of flint, so that regular shaped pieces can be taken off it to work into tools. The piece removed from the parent nodule (or core) is irregular in outline and is termed a flake. There are no indications that it has been subsequently worked or used once removed from its core. A feature of this flake is that on the more irregular face it shows evidence of other flakes having been previously removed from different directions on the core before this piece was detached. This suggests that it was not…

Flint scraper probably dating to the Neolithic period, (3500BC-2100BC). The object is curved in profile and D-shaped in cross section. Ridges and ripples can be seen on the dorsal face. On the ventral face conchoidal ripples can be seen. On the left hand edge there is some fine working and fine serration suggesting it has been used for some kind of light activity. It has a mid white patina.
