Flint leaf-shaped arrowhead of Late Neolithic date. Light grey-brown flint patinated to almost completely white with small patches of iron staining and a mid gloss surface. The arrowhead is roughly lozenge-shaped and is pressure flaked around the edges on both faces. The dorsal face retains traces of larger flaking scars and waves of percussion can be seen ventrally. The proximal point is slightly thickened over where the bulb of percussion would be. There is a small amount of recent damage along the edges. This is a fairly coarsely made example of such arrowheads. Date: Late Neolithic Dimensions: 26.0 mm x 17.5 mm x 3.5 mm Weight: 1.37 g

A knapped flint leaf-shaped arrowhead dating from the Earlier Neolithic period (c.3500BC - c.2500BC). Length: 41.5mm. Width: 20.7mm. Thickness: 7.2mm. Mass: 6.0g. The arrowhead is pointed oval shaped in plan. The arrowhead is made from bifacially worked flint flake, which is brown in colour with some opaque light brown cortex-like inclusions visible on both faces. The tip at the distal end is pointed. There is a small nick in the tip at the proximal end, and it appears slightly more rounded than the distal tip. The arrowhead has invasive retouch on both the dorsal and the ventral faces, although this is absent from the central area of the ventral face. In profile, the distal end of the arrowhead is thicker than the proximal end. The arrowhead has a pointed-oval shaped cross-section. The leaf shaped arrowhead is similar to Green's Type 2B (n) form (see Green, 1980, "The Flint Arrowheads of the British Isles", fig 27). In "Prehistoric Flintwork", Butler comments that leaf shaped arrowheads have been found in association with Early Neolithic pottery and Early and Middle Neolithic monumnets such as causewayed enclosures and long barrows.

A mid-brown flint flake, probably a blank from an unfinished leaf-shaped arrowhead of Neolithic date. It has invasive removals on the ventral surface at the proximal end, which have removed the bulb and form a crude leaf-shaped point. Further slight abrupt edge-retouch curving around the distal end can be interpreted as a platform from which invasive pressure flakes could have been removed. The leaf-shaped form of the blank and the curving retouched platform around the distal end indicate that a leaf-shaped arrowhead was most likely the intended product; leaf-shaped arrowheads date from the early Neolithic (c. 4000-3300 cal BC).
However, the orientation of the blank with the tip at the bulbar end is unusual as leaf-shaped arrowheads are usually manufactured with the bulbar end at the base of the arrowhead as this facilitates the production of a thin slender point. In contrast, early Bronze Age (c. 2300-1700 cal BC) barbed and tanged arrowheads tend to be manufactured with the bulb at the tip of the point as the notches required to form the barbs and tang can only be successfully produced on the thin and broad distal end of a flake. This raises the possibility that this artefact may be the blank for an early Bronze Age barbed and tanged arrowhead, but on reflection the curving distal end is most suggestive of a leaf-shaped form as barbed and tanged arrowhead blanks are usually triangular and no attempt has been made to flatten the distal end of this blank.

Part of a large collection of field walked material collected over many years from several fields. The collection includes definite evidence of Mesolithic activity including microliths and bladelets, some possibly Early -Middle Neolithic material including blades, leaf shaped arrowheads and a fragment of polished axehead and some Early Bronze Age material such as thumbnail scrapers. Much of the debitage could belong to any of these periods. There are no distinct Late Neolithic tool types such as tranchet arrowheads but some of the debitage and more undiagnostic flakes could belong to that period. The producers of this material utilised a wide range of materials including local chert, greensand chert, Portland chert and good and poor quality flint, most probably from smaller pebbles sourced locally but some which appears to be high quality downland flint. This suggests they were utilising materials from a wide range of sources including material from South and East Somerset at the closest.

Part of a group of debitage, waste flakes and blades found in the same area as two leaf-shaped arrowheads, several scrapers and a microlith. The tools and blade ratio suggests a strong early Neolithic component to the site with some Mesolithic activity although there are also some indications of Bronze Age activity such as burnt worked flint. In general, the artefacts are very small and the cores have been worked to their smallest fragment suggesting efforts to make the fullest use of the material.

Fragment of a large flint leaf-shaped arrowhead, dating to the early Neolithic. It was pointed oval in shape but the butt end has broken away with a straight break across the head slightly below the widest point, c.60-70% of the arrowhead survives. The point of the arrowhead has also broken with a small hinge fracture. The arrowhead shows working on both faces. Around the unbroken edges there is long, shallow, sub parallel retouch. Shallow invasive retouch completely covers the centre of the dorsal face with an unretouched area in the centre of the ventral face. The flint is opaque and light grey in colour, with small patches of white on both faces. It measures 33.8mm in length, 28.3mm in width: 17.7mm, 3.6mm in thickness and weighs 4.19g.

Incomplete Early Neolithic leaf shaped arrowhead made on a tertiary flake, pointed oval in plan with c.30% removed by a break to one side. The flint is mid-grey with circular orange staining on the dorsal face. The bulb of percussion has been removed by extensive retouch at the proximal end making the intended point of the arrowhead. There is retouch around the unbroken edges apart from at the distal end. The retouch on the dorsal face is shorter and more scalar towards the distal end becoming longer, shallower and parallel around the proximal end. On the ventral face it is shalow and scalar become more invasive around the proximal end. There is a large, circa 120 degree angled notch in the right edge caused by the break. The shape of the flake and the thinning retouch suggests that this would have been a large leaf shaped arrowhead in the making, although was possibly unfinished and discarded due to the break to one side. It measures 43.4mm in length, 22.7mm in width, 8.1mm thick and weighs 6.83g.

A leaf-shaped arrowhead formed on a mottled grey coloured coarse flint or possibly chert of probable Neolithic date (2900 - 2150 BC). The arrowhead is lentoid (sub-rectangular) in plan and lentoid in cross section. Both faces of the arrowhead have been pressure (ripple) flaked with a series of small neat narrow facets. Much of this rippled surface has been flaked with much skill (especially given the poor nature of the flint). Both long edges exhibit areas of secondary flaking or retouch and has been applied to both faces . Beneath the ripple flaking older transverse thinning scars are present.
The arrowhead measures 35.1mm long, 13.5mm wide and 4.2mm thick; it weighs 2.0 grams.
