A complete Neolithic to Early Bronze Age flint scraper dating to circa BC 4000-1600. It is a sub-oval secondary flake with a small amount of cortex on the left mesal. There is evidence of retouching, the shape suggests potential original manufacture as an arrow head and reuse as a scraper. It is manufactured from a caramel coloured flint. Length 56.69mm, width 37.52mm, weight 15.89g.

A complete flint scraper of Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. A crude scraper created on a sub-oval tertiary flake. Small amounts of scaled, abrupt, short retouch along each side and the distal edge of the dorsal face. Mottled, medium patination on both faces and a small amount of orange staining on the dorsal face. Medium hard hammer.  Length: 47.53mm, width: 39.15mm, thickness: 15.14mm, weight: 30.01g

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

Tertiary, hard hammer struck flake with semi-steep retouch to the dorsal face of the distal end to form an elongated (possibly hafted?) end scraper, of unpatinated slightly mottled dark grey flint, both lateral edges are unretouched and left sharp near to the platform.

A crude flint scraper of Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. A sub-triangular secondary flake with a small amount of cortex remaining on the dorsal face. The flake reaches a prominent, blunt point to the left of the distal end of the dorsal face, which has been sharpened with small amounts of short, abrupt, scaled retouch to either side.  A large flake has also been removed to either side of the left edge of the ventral face, leaving a short, blunt projection between, perhaps for use as an awl or borer. Prominent bulb of percussion, striking platform mostly missing. The flint…
