A complete flint scraper of Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. A roughly D-shaped flattened tertiary flake. Short, scaled, abrupt retouch along the curved distal edge and right edge of the dorsal face. A small amount of further short, scaled, low angle retouch along the right edge of the ventral face has removed the cortex here suggesting that it took place at a stage much later than the initial maufacture. Patchy medium to heavy white patination and orange staining in places on both faces. Length: 39.90mm, width: 35.01mm, thickness: 6.02mm, weight: 18.30g

A complete Neolithic finely worked polished stone axehead. It is an elongated sub-triangular shape and oval in cross-section, with straight slightly outwards curving sides, a narrow, rounded butt and a blade end that curves outwards only very slightly. It is composed of a coarse-grained basic intrusive rock that has probably undergone metamorphism, speckled white and blue-grey in colour. There is a patch of orange-brown straining on one face. It survives in good condition with only a small amount of damage to the butt end. Dr Emily Banfield (pers. com.) kindly comments …
