Neolithic blade; curved flint blade with reworked cutting edges along both sides and squared-off end. The flint is semi-translucent brown-black and there is an area of pale, chalky brown cortex at one end of the blade. The other end has a small, prominent bulb of percussion on the back face. The blade is of roughly triangular cross-section but a very narrow flake has been taken from the apex of the triangle to give a slightly trapezoidal shape. There is a large notch taken from one side of the blade. Length 44.5mm, width 14.1mm, thickness 4.7mm, weight 3.50g

Made on a mid brown and translucent caramel brown flint that has started to turn a dark grey through patination. The notched area itself is positioned on the ventral face of the right lateral edge. The blade has a triangular cross-section, a plain butt and the dorsal face possesses a central parallel ridge and a smaller bladelet removal all made by unipolar flaking. The distal end does however possess a small flake scar made from a bipolar removal.

Flint blade, probably a blade of later Neolithic or early Bronze Age date, c3000 - 1500BC. The hard hammer tertiary flake is of dark grey flint, roughly triangular in shape, and is shallowly triangular in end-on cross-section. There is a notch at one side which is possibly where it has been reshaped and used as a scraper. It has two facets on the dorsal face, with bifacial low angle retouch which is stepped along the un-notched side, and there is a pronounced bulb of percussion with ripple marks on the ventral face. It measures a maximum of 70.2 mm long by 32.9 mm wide by 8.4 mm …

Made on a light brown semi-translucent flint that has started to turn an opaque grey through patination. The dorsal face possesses cortext and two orthogonal flake scars originating from the right side. It looks like this was originally the base of the core when worked from the othe side due to the cortext bounding the fake scars along the left side.
