Palaeolithic (Upper) to Neolithic (Later) fabricator, 75mm long, 24mm wide, 28mm thick and 50.8g in weight. Made on a chalky white flint of poor quality. The fabricator is quite large and chunky and has been worked on all sides but still possesses a triangular cross-section.

Palaeolithic (Upper) to Neolithic (Later) notch on crested blade, 71mm long, 29mm wide, 6mm thick and 12.1g in weight. This notch has been created on the left lateral edge of a crested blade. The cresting is visible through the cetral part of the blade where there is also a dorsal ridge created by a single large orthogonal removal from the left. The flint is opaque and dark grey in colour. The distal end possesses a chlaky white cortex and the small butt is facetted.

Palaeolithic (Upper) to Neolithic (Later) flake-blade, 52mm long, 28mm wide, 14mm thick and 20.4g in weight. Made on a flint/chert that has turned a light chalky grey through patination. This piece has been photographed in the wrong direction giving the impression it is an end scraper, however this end is actuallt the proximal end and no modification has taken place after removal. The butt is plain and quite small and the distal end is large and flat and displays evidence of it being a platform itself. The piece has been struck from a bidirectional blade core. The doral face possesses…

Palaeolithic (Middle) to Neolithic (Later) Levallois flake, 73mm long, 89mm wide, 13mm thick and 112.5g in weight. Made on an opaque creamy grey chert. Large and wide. The dorsal face displays evidence of centripetal flaking. Butt is large and striking platform steep. The flake has been retouched in various places. The flake comes from quite a large core.

Palaeolithic (Middle) to Palaeolithic (MIddle) point, 52mm long, 32mm wide, 14mm thick and 25.1g in weight. Made on a limestone that is dark grey in colour. The dorsal face of the point has been semi-abruptly retouched around the entire right lateral edge and the distal end and the left edge has received some attention. The point seems to have been made by a non-prepared core technique, possibly a discoidal method.

.Palaeolithic (Middle) to Palaeolithic (MIddle) point, 44mm long, 26mm wide, 9mm thick and 10.6g in weight. Made on a flint that has turned an opaque light greyish cream colour through patination. The ventral face of the point has been semi-abruptly retouched and the left edge has been notched twice, presumably for the purposes of hafting. The point seems to have been made by a prepared core technique different to the Levallois method.
