Brown flint with pale buff patina. Irregular lump, with several points and possible retouch. DS regards this as possible burin; MF unconvinced, believing the orange colour to represent natural river-rolling, and apparent working as damage attending this episode. Length: 50.53mm, Width: 33.02mm, Thickness: 15.41mm. David Smith's ref: Site 5.

White and brown iron-stained flint. Sub-triangular flint with ?retouch, finder considers this a possible burin or point. MF dissents: Iron stain may suggest this object to have been river-rolled, which could account for most damage observed. MF suggests. Length: 52.09mm, Width: 27.18mm, Thickness: 11.66mm.

Short abrupt retouch executed from the dorsal aspect follows one indented edge, defining a small point - though it is uncertain whether this has been narrowed by subsequent damage.

This was reused: the striking platform was trimmed with the removal of wide and narrow scalar flakes to form a point at the edge of its former position. Patches of misty patina over all struck surfaces suggest the object endured a period of exposure to a calcareous environment after its final deposition. Suggested date: Late Mesolithic, 7000-4000 BC. Height: 38.3mm, Width: 26.9mm, Thickness: 14.6mm, Weight: 14.83gms.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Grey flint with a soapy feel, borer. Irregular flake with broad flakes struck from its dorsal side and with a flat rippled ventral surface. Short abrupt retouch executed from the ventral aspect defines one side of a short point; the concavity on the opposite side of the point appears battered, probably also from the ventral aspect. Patches of misty patina suggest the object endured a period of exposure to a calcareous environment after its deposition. Suggested date: Neolithic, 4000-2350 BC. Length: 32.9mm, Width: 23.0mm, Thickness: 5.3mm, Weight: 3.64gms.
