SOMDOR-3B4921: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A double-ended worked flint implement, probably an awl or point. It has been made from a large, probably naturally formed flake of pale brownish-grey flint, which is roughly lozenge-shaped. It has a glossy patina. The ventral surface has elliptical waves of percussion. Small, irregular flakes have been removed from almost the entire dorsal surface, although two small areas of nodule cortex remain. One point is flaked from the dorsal side with small, flat flakes along one edge and deeper, conchoidal flaking along the other. The other end has been flaked less extensively on both the ventral and dorsal surfaces and the removals are larger and more shallow. Dimensions: 55.6mm by 30.54mm by 12.04mm. Weight: 18.91g.

SOMDOR-3B76C1: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Probable awl or point. Pale brown grey flint with heavy white patina and iron staining. The ventral surface has striking platform and bulb of percussion. The distal end of the flake has been removed to form a small point at one edge..The dorsal surface has several longitudinal flaking scars and several of varing alignment where the point has been shaped at the distal end.

GLO-541D45: BLADE
Blade Neolithic Length 45mm, width 21mm, thickness 8mm Multiple flaking scars on the ventral, as a result any evidence for the original bulb of percussion is missing, these flaking scars have removed the patina. Remains of the cortex at the top edge. One arrise on the dorsal which runs off centre, down most of the length of the flint. Blade running down both sides, both blades have been retouched from the ventral side, the top of the left blade has had a hinge removal at the top, resulting in the top of the blade being stepped, there is extensive retouch around this feature from the dorsal side. The flint is rather poor quality and is worn, the patina is a light brown with creamy brown and off white mottling. Areas where flake have been removed the flint is light grey. The cortex is white.

GLO-546D44: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Retouched artefact Neolithic (Possibly) –Early Bronze Age (Possibly) Length 31mm, width 28mm, thickness 8mm The bulb of percussion and emanating ripples are missing from the ventral. One arrise in the dorsal, which is off centre. The flint is in a triangular shape, along one edge there is very small flaking scars showing where this edge was retouched, this edge is very worn and the flaking scars have discoloured the same colour as the patina. The other two edges have very large, crude flaking scars. On the dorsal side there is a knop towards the top, this is where frost has shattered the flint in the past, it is a very worn fracture. Light brown patina with mid brown mottling, the areas which has detailed retouch has discoloured the same as the patina these areas are very worn. The areas that have cruder retouch has a greyish-brown colour and appear to be fresher much less worn flaking scars.

LIN-65BCB5: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Flint flake, reworked into a knife or scraper. The flint has approximately 80 percent cortex remaining on its dorsal surface, and a further 10 percent patina. Looking at the bulb of percussion on the ventral side, the strike would appear to have come from the patinated side downwards. The flake has then been retouched on all sides. The flint is a dark mottled brown colour.

LIN-69F975: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Implement made out of flint. The flint is vaguely leaf-shaped, and could possibly be a rough-out for a leaf-shaped arrowhead or a scraper. The dorsal and vertral surfaces appear to be more frost shattered than worked. One edge at the distal end shows definite signs of retouch, the other edge is dubious. There is no cortext remaining. The flint is well patinated except for the areas showing definite retouch. The flint is a dark brown colour, and the patina is creamy-blue.

The objects are two knapped flint thumbnail scrapers. One scraper is incomplete, it is missing its bulb of percussion. Both scrapers have retouch evident on the curved edge of the scraper. The flint is a shiny mid brown colour. They probably date to the Neolithic period. Together they weigh 5.5g., the complete scraper weighs 3.2g and the incomplete example is 2.3g.

CAM-E99EE7: AXE
A small ground-polished Green Stone axe. Early-mid Neolithic c. 4500-2900 BC. Possibly of Cornish Green Stone, Cumbria or North Wales in origin and is of a dark grey-green hue. The Axe is symmetrical in cross-section, and is transverse in shape both at the Distal and Proximal ends. Both ventral and dorsal surfaces are finely ground and semi-polished, and the distal end has a fine cutting edge. There is also a small crescent-shaped indentation on the ventral - dorsal surface, approximately mid way along the axe, which may have been added to aid the hafting of the axe into its haft. There is some small flake scar damage at the proximal end of the axe and a large flake scar on one surface (ventral - dorsal), probably the result of modern plough damage. Length: 85 .07 mm, Thickness: 22.40 mm, Width: max 53.37 mm - 32.78 mm, Weight: 138.73 g.

HESH-FAB0F1: DEBITAGE
Small flint waste flake or chunk probably dating from the Neolithic period (3500 - 2100 BC). The flake is irregular in both plan and profile. It has a number of facets (caused by flaking) on the upper side and a bulb of percussion on the rear. There are no areas of cortex (rough outer skin of the flint nodule) present which suggests that this flake comes from the final (tertiary) phases of tool production. There is no evidence of secondary reworking on any of the edges which suggests that it has not be utilised as a tool (such as a scraper). The flint is a mid grey colour with a number of darker seams running through it. When held up to the light a number of flaws can be seen in the flint. This suggests that it might have come from a riverine or glacial source rather than from an area where flint occurs more frequently. This type of waste is typical of the Shropshire area as sites for procuring flint are limited.

LIN-627016: POLISHED AXEHEAD
Neolithic polished stone axe. The axe is oval in cross-section with flattened upper and lower edges. The axe tapers at both ends, one terminating with a wide, worn and slightly chipped cutting edge, and at the other end to a narrower, more abraded butt. The surface of the axe is highly polished with a few patches of later damage. The axe is a mottled green colour, and looks very similar in fabric to Neolithic polished axes from the Langdale quarry in the Lake District. The axe was reported to the FLO at a finds open day at Nettleham All Saints Church, on the 15/1/2005. The axe was apparently found in a pile of rubble after a house demolition in Nettleham in the 1960s. The Lincolnshire Echo ran a story on the axe, which appeared in the paper on the 17th Jan 2005. A transcript of the article follows: An ancient Lincolnshire hunter's axe head has finally been identified by archaeologists - 40 years after it was found. The 6,000-year-old weapon, which may have been used to kill wild deer and boar, was brought to a village heritage day by pensioner Kathleen Hesketh. She found the rare artefact, one of only a handful ever discovered, in a pile of rubble after a house demolition in Nettleham in the 1960s. She kept it without realising its historical significance. Specialists hosting a heritage day in the village, near Lincoln, on Saturday quickly realised that the axe head was a rare find. "The cottage, owned by my father, was made of wattle and daub and was deemed unfit to live in," said Mrs Hesketh. "Me and my husband Bert had the task of demolishing it. One day I arrived and saw this bright green stone - I said 'this would make a good knife sharpener' but my husband thought it was an axe head." Mrs Hesketh, of The Green, Nettleham, had the stone assessed a number of years ago and was told it was probably a Neolithic axe head - but she took the object along to the heritage day to get this confirmed. "I was told that the stone was probably 2,000 years old," she said. "But on Saturday they said it could be 6,000 years old - it was quite surprising." The axe head is around 7in long, 2in wide and just 1in thick. Archaeologists believe it was made by one of Britain's first specialist weapon-makers sometime between 4500 and 2000 BC. Although happy with the news Mrs Hesketh, a pensioner, has no intention of parting with the object. "I have had it in my house since it was found and will not be getting rid of it," she said. "It's a lovely piece to hold - it's smooth and a beautiful green colour. There's nothing to it and I will be keeping it." Lincolnshire County Council archaeologist Adam Daubney (25) was impressed by the find. "The axe head is from the type of stone found in the Great Langdale area in the Lake District," he said. "I believe the item has been exchanged or traded - which is how it found its way to the county. "It could have been used to kill animals but I believe this item was probably a symbol of power." Bronze Age spear heads, Roman coins and pottery were among the other items handed in on the day. Mr Daubney said: "One of the most interesting finds were two jettons, or counting tokens, which were made during the 16th or 17th century in Nuremberg, Germany." The heritage day, organised by the Nettleham Heritage Group, was held at All Saints' Church and attracted around 400 people. The group's chairman the Reverend Gordon Sleight (57) said: "The day was a huge success."

A polished flint axe head, dating to the neolithic period. The flint is of a pale creamy colour, although the colour of the flint is an orangey brown where the axe has been chipped. The chip marks on the axe probably relate to post-depositional damage rather than as a result of damage whilst the axe was in use. The entire body of the axe would once have been polished smooth, a finish achieved by grinding against a sandstone surface. However, much of the surface of the axe is now slightly rough to the touch, a result of post-depositional erosion of the flint. The axe measures 147 mm in length and tapers from 60 mm wide at the blade to 20 mm at the butt end. The axe head is 45 mm thick in the centre, tapering to 10 mm thick at the butt and 3 mm at the blade. Used for felling trees, the axe would once have been set within a haft. As the haft would have been of an organic material it is now missing. Evidence of hafted polished axes within archaeological contexts is best known from the lake sites of Switzerland, where such artefacts have been discovered within wooden hafts, predominantly of Ash. These hafts were constructed from substantial trees cut at the bottom in order that the top of the root could project back above the axe slot in a curve (Harding and Young 1979, page 102). Furthermore, some of the many axes discovered from the River Thames reveal a light coloured band where the axe was hafted. Such evidence reveals that the haft was invariably fitted off-centre, towards the butt of the axe-head (Adkins and Jackson 1978, page 11). The axe-head dates to between circa 4500 and 2000 BC.

WMID-35F243: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A probable piece of flint debris, dating to the Neolithic period between c. 4000-2200 BC (30.1mm x 41.8mm; thickness: 10.9mm; weight: unknown). The dorsal side is mostly covered by the outer cortex, with one main arise. The dorsal side, however, shows the bulb of percussion very clearly with a slight eraillure scar below. There are distinctive ripples or ‘lunettes’ radiating from the bulb. There does not seem to be any areas of particular re-touch.

LEIC-887CF1: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Late Neolithic/early Bronze age flint side scraper, 30mm long and 21mm wide. The flint is dark brown and is worked along its side and part of the end which suggests that a Neolithic date is more likely.

DEV-B87AA3: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A leaf-shaped flint arrowhead of early Neolithic date (c. 4000BC to c.3500BC). The arrowhead has been made from a drop-shaped, tertiary flake which is dark grey and has no recortication. The low-angle, sub-parallel retouch is confined to the edges and the tip is poorly finished.

HESH-4902E2: AXEHEAD
Fragment from the butt end of a knapped, ground and polished axe head of probable later Neolithic date (2900-2100 BC). The axe is knapped from a mid grey volcanic tuff. This rock type is formed from compressed volcanic ash that is found in Britain in a band that runs from the Lake District (the Langdale's source Group VI), through North Wales (Graig Lwyd Group VII), and into Cornwall and Devon (Groups XVI and IV respectively). Volcanic tuff is similar to flint in that it can be flaked, ground and polished. This fragment is irregular in plan and sub-oval in cross section. It measures 72.1mm length, 53.4mm width, and is 21.6mm thick. The fragment weighs 76.73 grams. The axe fragment has been damaged on two sides leaving only a relatively small area of original polished surface. This polished area includes the tapering side edge and butt of the axe. The profile of this suggests that the axe would have originally had a relatively narrow with a thin butt. It also suggests that one face was less domed (or humped) than the other. The surface of the polished area has a number of long deep scratches on it that are probably the result of movement in the soil. The damage to the axe seems to have occurred in several stages. The oldest damage is a large flake scar that runs across the reverse of the fragment. This scar removes much of the polished surface and has a mid light grey patina covering it. The other (newer) area of damage is located towards the cutting edge of the axe. Here there is a large hinge fracture which suggests a vertical blow. There is no patina on this fracture suggesting it has happened relatively recently. It is impossible to source fragments such as these without a detailed petrological analysis of the rock. This would allow the original source of the rock to be established.

The flint ranges in colour but most pieces have a lightly patinated surface indicative of surface weathering. The total weight is 158.85g.

NARC-B52DA6: POLISHED AXEHEAD
Polished flint axehead dating to the Neolithic period. The flint is of an orange colour. The axehead was polished by grinding it against a granite rock. This polishing is restricted to both sides of the chopping edge. The butt end has been worked with flakes removed from the axe. There is a slight chip from the axehead at the blade edge. It is possible that this occurred during use, but it is also possible that this represents post-depositional damage. Used for felling trees, the axe would once have been set within a haft. As the haft would have been of an organic material it is now missing. Evidence of hafted polished axes within archaeological contexts is best known from the lake sites of Switzerland, where such artefacts have been discovered within wooden hafts, predominantly of Ash. These hafts were constructed from substantial trees cut at the bottom in order that the top of the root could project back above the axe slot in a curve (Harding and Young 1979, page 102). Furthermore, some of the many axes discovered from the River Thames reveal a light coloured band where the axe was hafted. Such evidence reveals that the haft was invariably fitted off-centre, towards the butt of the axe-head (Adkins and Jackson 1978, page 11). The axe-head dates to between circa 4500 and 2000 BC.

NARC-479C41: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A knapped flint knife created from a dark grey flint. The knife is 56.8 mm long, 39.7 mm wide and 9.8 mm thick. The artefact appears to have been broken at it's bottom edge, but is otherwise intact. The flint has been retouched on all of its original edges but one side exhibits considerably more refined retouch than the others, forming something of a serated blade. The bulb of percussion is clearly visible on the tool's ventral surface. Interestingly, also on the ventral surface, the flint is affected by what appears to be an iron corrosion product. This is possibly the result of the tool having lain adjacent to an iron object, or possibly iron stone, for a long period of time. The knife is Neolithic and ranges from between 4500 BC to 2000 BC in date.

NARC-48AB21: ARROWHEAD

LIN-A2EC76: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Flint knife. The knife is long and thin with approximately 60% cortex remaining in a line along the dorsal surface. The sides have long flakes taken off them, with some further retouch along the edges. Striking platform present. The ventral surface shows some flake removal, mainly near the edges, however it is largely frost shattered. The flint is a honey colour large covered with a blue-cream patina.

LIN-A318A3: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Flint scraper. The scraper is roughly oval in plan, with cortex covering nearly all of the dorsal surface. There is a striking platform on one side, and retouch along the rest. The flint is a dark brown colour.

LIN-A32075: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Flint knife or fabricator. The knife is elongated and slightly crescentric, with cortex covering approximately 80% of the dorsal surface. There is retouch on the left and right hand sides, however the tip appears have no further working. The ventral surface has no cortext, and the striking platform appears to be missing. The flint is a dark brown colour with very little patination.

LIN-A33893: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Flint knife. The knife appears to be a natural piece with some minimal working along one edge. The surface of the flint looks frost shattered in places. The flint is a mottled blue-cream colour, with patches ofa reddish patina.

LIN-A344C1: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Flint knife. The knife has approximately 70% cortex on its dorsal surface, with two main flakes removed to its right. The striking platform is lozenge-shaped and flat. There is retouch along one of the long sides. The flint is a blue-cream colour.

NARC-2204F1: SIDE SCRAPER
A flint side and end scraper formed from a large flake of dark grey to ochre flint. Some cortex remains on the distal end of the dorsal face. The large striking platform and bulb of percussion are clearly visible at the proximal end. A notch on the right mesial edge of the dorsal face is seemingly incidental to this artefact, and does not appear to have been utilised. The size of this flake indicates that it is Neolithic to Bronze Age in date. The generic style exhibited in such scrapers in the later prehistoric period makes it impossible to detemine a date with any more accuracy.

LANCUM-3871D1: ARROWHEAD

CAM-480E31: FLAKE
A fragment of a late Neolithic - Bronze Age Scraper. Circa 2500 - 1500 BC - possibly (Ovate, Side scraper), light brown Chocolate coloured flint with semi polished surfaces A plunged flake fragment possibly from Distal left edge. The upper face (Dorsal surface) shows signs of small scale - flaking re touch along its edge. The Ventral surface edge shows only one or two small flakes being removed. Length - 48 mm, width - 27.50 mm, thickness - 10.87, weight - 13.87

LIN-4A8AF5: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Flint scraper. The scraper is roughly oval in plan, and has a very small patch of cortex remaining on one edge, visible only on the dorsal surface. There is retouch along one end. The flint is a dark brown colour.

WMID-4C0064: LEAF ARROWHEAD
A complete knapped flint leaf arrowhead (length: 34.1mm; width: 21.9mm; thickness: 6.5mm; weight: 5.14g), dating to the early-late Neolithic period between c. 4000-2200 BC. The arrowhead has been extensively re-touched along the edges and has a rounded but flat base heading up to a point in a tear-drop shape. This example looks very similar to those classified as Types 1A & 2A in Green, 1980, pages 69-70. The arrowhead is in a good condition.

DEV-F3E670: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Worked flint comprising an awl on a flake. The flint is dark grey, possibly from Beer Head. There is some retouch along the edges, particularly around the protruding awl. It is late Neolithic to Bronze Age.

WAW-301A85: FLAKE
There are three secondary flakes knapped from flint. They are multi-faceted and one has cortex remaining. The flint is a light brown/mottled grey colour. They probably date to the Neolithic or early Bronze Age.

DEV-35C5B6: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Flint arrowhead, found during excavation of a pond. It is probably Neolithic in date.

HESH-46C226: ARROWHEAD
Leaf shaped flint arrowhead of probable Middle Neolithic to Early Bronze Age date (2900 - 2150 BC). The arrowhead is sub-oval (tear-drop shaped) in plan and lentoid in cross section. It has been knapped from a light-mid grey translucent flint with a series of brown flecks within its matrix. It measures 37.3mm length, 16.9mm width, and is 5.3mm thick. It weighs 2.71 grams. Both faces (sides) have been pressure (ripple) flaked with small neat narrow facets. Much of this rippled surface has been flaked with skill. There is on large central bulbous hinge fracture in the centre of the arrowhead. This has been carefully knapped around. The butt of the arrowhead has been well shaped and is slightly dished where the small flakes have been removed. The upper two thirds of both edges exhibit areas of secondary flaking or retouch. There is slight damage to one long edge; this has made the arrowhead asymmetrical in plan. This area has been re-flaked which would suggest that the damage occurred and was repaired in antiquity. Flint tools from Herefordshire are relatively rare compared to other areas of the country. This flint is likely to have come from a riverine or glacial source if made locally. Potential evidence for this is the re-flaking of the damaged area and the fact that a large hinge-fracture remains in the centre of the arrowhead. In areas where flint is commonly found these types of flaw result in the arrowhead being discarded at an early stage of knapping.

NARC-5A7CD8: FLAKE
A flint flake, retouched and utilised as a tool, probably a wedge for splitting wood. The flint has retouch around the entire perimiter and invasive retouch on the dorsal side. The ventral surface of the flake has some cortex remaining. Opposing edge damage is suggestive of the use of the flint as a wedge. The flint itself is of a grey to light brown colour. The tool was probably used during the later Neolithic to Early Bronze Age.

NARC-5AD0C0: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A flint flake, retouched and utilised as a tool, and possibly originally hafted into a handle. The left edge of the dorsal surface is retouched to form a cutting edge and the right edge has denticulated retouch, possibly for use in a sawing action. The flake is broken mid way through the bulb of percussion, as a result of imperfections in the flint. It may have broken as a result of having been hafted, having snapped where the handle joined. The flint is pale grey to brown in colour. A tiny amount of cortex remains on the right edge of the dorsal surface, at the distal end. The flint was probably utilised during the late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age.

NARC-5B27E0: FLAKE
A flint flake, retouched and utilised as a tool. The flake has been retouched on both of its side edges. The bulb of percussion and striking platform are both clearly visible. An inverted notch at the distal end may have been a deliberate gouging design. The flint is pale grey to brown in colour. The flint was probably utilised during the late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age.

NARC-5B7502: BLADE
A fragment of a broken flint blade. The blade is retouched on both of its side edges, along with retouch at the distal end. The flint is fractured as it expands with the bulb of percussion. The flint is of a pale to dark grey and pale brown flint. It was probably used during the later Neolithic to early Bronze Age.

NARC-5C2102: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A flint end scraper. The end scraper has retouched edges at the distal end and edge plunting around the proximal end to make it more comfortable to hold. The tool is constructed from a primary flake, as the dorsal surface has a substantial amount of pale creamy coloured cortex remaining. The flint is dark grey to brown in colour beneath the cortex. The scraper was probably fabricated in the late Neolithic to early Bronze Age.

GLO-C71FC1: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Blade Neolithic, probably Length 58mm, width 22mm, depth 10mm One arise on the dorsal to the left side, remains of the cortex on the left of the arise. The bulb of percussion is missing from the ventral. There is a blade on the right side, which has had direct, short retouch down it length. Patina on the ventral is light creamy/brown, this side has also been water worn. The dorsal side has been restruck at a later date, removing the patina and exposing the grey speckled flint, the retouch is from this phase of use. Therefore this is a Neolithic blade that has been fashioned out of a much older flint tool.

WILT-F24533: AXEHEAD
Neolithic polished axehead with a 'waisted' butt end. It is 132mm long and the cutting edge is the widest point at 56.5mm wide. The butt end is 26mm wide and 15mm thick, the waist being c.10mm below it and 27mm wide. Immediately below this point it expands to 30mm wide. The maximum thickness of the axe is 27mm, just before it approaches the cutting end, where both faces thin and curve to the cutting edge. Along one long side of the axehead there appear to be small notches running its length and a ?granite surface shows through. The other long side is perfectly smooth. Weighs c.280g (to nearest 10g). The 'waist' would have secured the axehead in its handle.

Flint scraper or knife. The flake is worked around every edge, however on opposing egdes the angle of retouch is from the other side; that is the left side has been retouched from the upper surface, and right the lower. There is one projection from one of the corners which has been retouched to make a perforator or borer. The flint is a grey-cream colour with a chalky yellow patina.

Flint arrowhead. The arrowhead has some fine working around the tip but is not very well worked at the butt. The arrowhead has been knapped from a flake with a pronounced bulb of percussion on the ventral (lower) face. It is unusual because the bulb scar is on the left edge of the arrowhead on the ventral face as opposed to the bottom of the arrow. The tool weighs 2.54g and measures 34.12mm in length, 18.98mm in width and 5.04mm in thickness.

SWYOR-2EA126: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Triangular flint scraper, probably dating to the Neolithic period. The section of the scraper is narrow at the base of the triangle and thickens towards the tip where it has been worked to form a point (either side of which could have been used as a scraper).

There is a double ventral ridge on the lower surface (this is the surface with the bulb of percussion). On the dorsal surface, there is working along the right edge to form a denticulated knife. At the top corner of the tool there is a slightly protruding point which may have been used as a graver. The tool weighs 12.22g and measures 37.39mm in length, 26.7mm in width and 7.98mm in thickness.

SWYOR-2EED95: AXEHEAD
Early Neolithic polished stone axehead. The axehead has been ground so that it has a sharp curved blade edge and smooth surface on both sides. The width of the axehead is narrow at the butt end (which is quite worn and chipped) and widens at the centre before narrowing again to the blade edge. The axehead is roughly triangular in plan with a narrow butt and wide convex blade edge. The tool weighs 94.56g and measures 67.62mm in length, 48.01mm in width and 22.1mm in thickness.

SWYOR-2F3AA3: AXEHEAD
Early Neolithic polished stone axehead. The axehead has been ground so that the areas of surface still surviving are smooth. There are quite large areas of damage on the axehead; the blade edge is completely missing and the butt has some chips removed. The width of the axehead is narrow at the butt end and widens at the centre, the remaining part of the axehead does not survive. The axehead has a pointed oval shaped section. Where the tool is broken the stone is a bluish grey colour and is likely to be Langdale stone – known as greenstone. The greenstone comes from the intrusion of a narrow vein of tuff in the volcanic rocks of Great Langdale in Cumbria. The stone was suitable for making highly polished axes as well as rougher tools; these were traded across large areas of Britain and Ireland. The tool weighs 180.51g and measures 90.04mm in length, 62.38mm in width and 27.63mm in thickness.

WAW-1353F6: TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT
The item appears to be a combination of tools that has been knapped from a mottled grey coloured flint. The tools appear to be a point/awl and a semi-circular shaped blade edge. The tool probably dates to the Neolithic period. In plan the tool is a sub trapezoidal shape in plan. The striking platform forms the upper narrow edge. One side edge has been re-touched forming the curvilinear blade edge. How effective this edge may be as a blade is not certain as the blade is steeply angled towards the edge. The opposite side of the tool has an elongated lower corner, possibly forming a point or awl. The tip of this corner is missing. The tool measures 38.91mm long, 31.05mm wide and 9.04mm thick. It weighs 9.9g.

At the proximal end is a wide striking platform and a bulb of percussion on the ventral face. There are clear, shallow waves of percussion along the length of the flake. The dorsal surface has been pressure flaked all over from both sides, producing regular, lateral flakes and a central raised spine. The distal end is shaped to a rounded point. Late Neolithic.

SOMDOR-62EFD5: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Tertiary chert waste flake. Mid grey-brown chert with white flecks. Matt patina. A small striking platform can be seen at the proximal end. and there are waves of percussion on the ventral surface. The dorsal surface has three main elongate, longitudinal flaking scars indicating that it is the result of bladelet production. There is some edge damage along both sides where the darker colour of the underlying chert can be seen (this indicates that the damage is more recent). Late Neolithic to early Bronze Age.

NMGW-7938F6: FLAKE
A flake from a polished Neolithic flint axehead.

NMGW-7993D5: SCRAPER (TOOL)
A Neolithic or Bronze Age flint scraper fragment measuring 20.8mm long, 15mm wide, 8.3mm thick and weighing 2.8g.

CORN-AE1F93: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Flint end and side scraper, extended and ovate in plan, trapezoidal in section, and concave and arched in profile, with sub-parallel lateral margins, unimarginal worked edges on the dorsal face, and rounded distal and proximal ends. The distal end has been retouched to create a cutting edge with an angle between 70º and 90º, which makes the edge effective for scraping but not acute enough to accidentally cut or slice the material being worked. The proximal end bears the remains of the bulb of percussion on the ventral side, and just below this, radiating out towards the edge that is covered in cortex, are five parallel scratch marks which are probably more recent in origin. There is a notch about halfway down one side of the scraper, which may have functioned as a graving tool.The ratio of length to breadth is about 2:1. The colour of the flint is a mottled mid to dark grey. Some cortex remains on the dorsal face, but less than 50%, which suggests that this scraper was made from a secondary flake blank. There are some signs of usewear on the ventral face in the form of gloss near the notched edge and running in parallel lines from this edge inwards towards the centre of the ventral face. Bond (2004) illustrates three similar endscrapers in his guidelines, one on page 137, Fig.5.124, No.F18, which is dated to the Neolithic; another on page 151, Fig.5.135, No.F111, which is dated to the Early Bronze Age; and the third on page 154, Fig.5.138, No.7, which is dated to the Middle Bronze Age. Bond (2004) also refers to Riley (1990, p.226) on page 127 where he dates this Class 4/8 to the Later Neolithic / Early Bronze Age.

Flint serrated blade or saw, ovate in plan, lozenge-shaped in section, and convex and arched in profile, with sub-parallel lateral margins, unimarginal worked edges, and a rounded distal end and truncated proximal end. There are two notches, one near the distal end on the left edge of the dorsal face, and one near the proximal end on the right edge of the dorsal face. No cortex survives on the dorsal face, which suggests that the implement has been made from a tertiary flake. There are also a number of scratch marks on the ventral face of the right edge, running from the edge inwards, along with an area of gloss, which suggests that these marks represent usewear. The flint is a slightly translucent dark grey-brown colour and the length to breadth ratio is about 2:1. Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on pages 143, Fig.5.129, Nos.F150, which is dated to the Later Neolithic.

HESH-E72591: FLAKE
Flint flake of probable Neolithic date (3500 - 2100 BC). The flake is irregular in plan and sub-triangular in cross section. The bulb of percussion on the reverse of the flake is complete. It is likely that this flake was a by-product (or waste flake / debitage) of tool making; if this is the case then it must have been once all the cortex had been removed (tertiary / third phase of tool making) as there is no evidence for cortex on the flint. This waste flake has then been re-used or utilised to form a scraper like tool. The evidence for this is the secondary flaking or retouch along one edge. There is also some reworking on the rear butt of the flake, near the bulb of percussion; this work is less detailed than the retouch on the edge. The flint flake is a mid grey colour. There are also a number of scars and damage from movement in the soil or frost action. This has resulted in damage to several faces of the flake. A possible source for this uncharacteristically large flake is from a riverine or glacial deposit rather than from an area where flint occurs more frequently. This type of tool is typical of the Herefordshire / Marches area as sites for procuring flint are limited. This results in primary, secondary and tertiary waste flakes being utilised to make tools such as this.

One face has long parallel retouch along the left mesial and distal edges. The length is 45.7mm, the width is 36.5mm and the weight is 30.64g.

WAW-0E0D31: ARROWHEAD
The arrowhead is a barb and tanged type which dates to the late Neolithic to early Bronze Age (-2500 to –1500). It has been knapped from a dark grey coloured flint, which has developed a heavy mottled blue/white patina. The arrowhead is incomplete as the tip and the terminals of the tangs are broken. These are perhaps relatively recent breaks as the patina does not cover them, and the truer colour of the flint is visible. Both surfaces of the arrowhead have negative scarring. The arrowhead measures 22.88mm long from the tip to the tang, and 24.14mm from the exterior edge of each barb. It weighs 2.7g.

NLM-0FDFA2: SCRAPER (TOOL)

CORN-4152A2: ARROWHEAD
Flint barbed and tanged arrowhead, arrow-shaped in plan and lozenge-shaped in profile and section. The two barbs are short and stunted and do not extend to the end of the tang, but instead are at right-angles to the tang and end at the point where the tang begins. The arrowhead is bifacially worked throughout and there are two notches, one half way along the left edge of the ventral face, and the other between that and the point. The flint is a dark grey colour, and may have come from Beer Head in Devon. The length to breadth ratio is 3:2. Bond illustrates a similar example on page 147, Fig.5.133, No.F177, which is dated from the Beaker Period.

LANCUM-6660E5: CARVED STONE
Rectangular stone with cup marks on the obverse and reverse, called 'cobble'. One one side there is a larger central and smaller marginal cup while on the other a large central cup mark is surrounded by several smaller and a couple of medium-sized cup-marks. Both central cups are 94mm in diameter while the smaller ones diameters range from 20-60mm. These cup-marked decorated stones are generally dated to the Late Neolithic and Early Bronze Age because they are sometimes associated with LNeo and EBA burial sites. However, an exact date is difficult to give. The cobble was recorded at Penrith Finds Day, 14.06.05 Beckensall, S. 2002. Prehistoric Rockart in Cumbria. Stroud, pp. 12f, 127f.

SOMDOR-7A3EC2: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Flint waste flake. Tertiary flake, probably from blade manufacture. At the distal end is a large striking platform. Ventrally there is a broad bulb of percussion and marked waves of percussion. There is a small flaking scar on the bulb. The dorsal surface has several elongate flaking scars. The end of the flake has been snapped off in antiquity (probably to make a blade). The flint is a light grey brown with large white mottles. It has a glossy milky patina.

BH-896131: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A flint scraper of probable late Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. The implement is roughly U-shaped and is fairly crudely-made, with re-touching only to one side of the convex upper face. The top edge is flat and probably represents part of the original core platform. The flint is mid grey in colour. It measures 34.8mm long by 30.7mm wide and 15.7mm thick. It weighs 18.7g.

BH-8A5163: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A serrated flint flake of probable early Neolithic date. The object is simple in form having been formed from a broad flake. There is fine re-touching along the right hand vertical edge (as you look at it), whilst the left hand vertical edge has been blunted by the removal of a very narrow flake. The flint is light blueish-grey in colour and is heavily weathered. It measures 42.8mm long by 35.9mm wide and 15.2mm thick. It weighs 21.5g.

LIN-E07AB6: AXE
Incomplete polished stone axe. The fragment is the butt end, which is roughly oval in cross-section and tapers on either side. The surface is very worn and rough, with an off-centred ridge on one side. This ridge may be original, or may be the result of wear and damage. The stone is perhaps granite.

HESH-F52310: FLAKE
Flint flake of probable Neolithic date (3500 - 2100 BC). The flake is irregular in plan and sub-rectangular in cross section. The bulb of percussion on the reverse of the flake is incomplete and has been trimmed. It is likely that this flake was a by-product (or waste flake / debitage) of tool making; if this is the case then this flake comes from the tertiary / third / final phase of tool making due to the lack of cortex. This waste flake has then been snapped and this part of the flake has been re-used or utilised to form a scraper like tool. The evidence for this is the secondary flaking or retouch along the two opposite edges. The detail of retouch varies from the two areas. At one end the flakes are relatively large to create an irregular edge; whereas the retouch at the other end is smaller and neater creating an even serrated cutting edge. There is also some reworking on the rear butt of the flake, near the bulb of percussion; this work is less detailed than the retouch on the edge. The flint flake is a mid – dark brown grey colour. There are also a number of scars and damage from movement in the soil. This type of tool is typical of the Herefordshire / Shropshire / Welsh Marches area as sites for procuring flint are limited. This results in primary, secondary and tertiary waste flakes being utilised to make tools. The flake measures 35.4mm length, 20.7mm width, is 5.5mm thick and weighs 4.84 grams.

NLM-0AB182: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A Neolithic flint axe/adze. The flint is of an opaque grey and white colour and has patches of iron straining on both faces. The bifacially worked axe is semi-circular in section and has a transverse cutting edge. The dorsal face is heavily worked and has a small patch of cortex near the cutting edge. The ventral face is largely covered in cortex and has some short parallel retouch on the cutting edge. The length is 105.6mm, the width is 43.9mm and the weight is 107.49g.

WILT-B65101: AXEHEAD
Roughout for a chalk hand-axe, measuring 152x87x46mm. It weighs 460g. It is presumably Neolithic in date and possibly ritual, given its non-use as a cutting implement. The outer surface of the original chalk nodule is visible over c.10% of the object. It has been fashioned by large flakes being removed. Its manufacture and shape show this is undoubtedly a hand axe.

NLM-C7E4F4: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A serrated blade probably of Neolithic Date. The opaque grey flint blade tapers to a point at the distal end. On both mesial edges are small continuous notches or denticulations. The proximal end is square and has some slight retouch. The ventral face has a prominent bulb of percussion. The length is 36.6mm, the width is 18.7mm and the weight is 4.05g.

WAW-1A37D2: AXE
The axe is a polished axe head dating to the Neolithic period, -3500 to -2100. Originally the axe would have been secured to a wooden handle. Jon Radley, Warwickshire Museum, has identified the axe as being knapped and polished flint. The flint is a pale mottled grey colour. In plan the axe is a rounded sub-rectangle which tapers towards the butt. The blade is a slightly irregular edge due to damage. There are negative scars, particularly on one which do not appear to be purposeful. In section the axe is a sub-oval. Off-centre towards the blade the axe in profile is humped on both faces. The hump is created by slightly chamfered sides and on the surfaces a change of angle in profile which tapers towards each other forming the blade. The butt has old feint negative scars which have not been fully polished away. The butt also has more recent scars which are likely to be damage. The axe measures 149.85mm long, 64.68mm wide across the blade and 36mm thick across the humped area. It weighs 376g.

SUSS-356331: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A small crude waste flake Neolithic to Bronze Age period (circa 3500 – 800 BC). The bulb of percussion and striking platform have both been removed but ripples can be seen on the ventral surface. The dorsal surface still has 40% of the natural cortex coating it. There is some evidence of retouch on the left edge of the dorsal surface.

SUSS-3592D6: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A small crude waste flake Neolithic to Bronze Age period (circa 3500 – 800 BC). The bulb of percussion and striking platform both survive on the ventral surface. The dorsal surface is still coated in the natural cortex. There is some evidence of retouch on the right edge of the dorsal surface.

SUSS-35A015: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A small basic scraper dating to the Neolithic period (circa 3500 – 2100 BC). The bulb of percussion and striking platform both survive on the ventral surface. A number of ripples are also evident. Numerous blade flakes have been removed from the dorsal surface before this flake itself was removed. 30% of the dorsal surface is still coated with the natural cortex. There is some evidence of retouch on the left edge of the dorsal surface.

WILT-5FCB12: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Lithic implement rather like a small handaxe, Neolithic or Bronze Age in date. It has not been struck but created from a pebble or nodule. A patch of coretex survives on each face, c.10%. The flint is browny grey in colour. Measures 83x50x26mm and weighs 97.06g. While the edges had been worked, it is not extensive working, merely enough to give a sharpish edge.

WILT-6001F3: POLISHED AXEHEAD
Incomplete Neolithic polished axehead, badly chipped and showing some iron staining. The flint is 95% patinated, except for one patch which is a transluscent grey. Its incomplete length is 112mm, its width 52mm at the broken end and narrowing to 40mm in width at the other. It weighs 242.46g and is max 32mm thick. Polished axeheads are sometimes thought of as ritual items, although some have clearly been used and this one looks like it has had a rough time of it!

LEIC-5C5E30: ARROWHEAD
Neolithic flint arrowhead, 35.5mm long and 22mm wide. The arrowhead is made of dark brown flint and has been bifacially worked. It appears to have sustained some damage and been considerably reworked along its pointed edge.

NARC-7061C1: FLAKE
A flake of a creamy coloured flint. The flake appears to have crude retouch around its edges. It is not easy to place this artefact within a category of tool type, though it may have been used as a scraper. It is likely to have been utilised in the late Neolithic to early Bronze Age.

NARC-7110C7: FLAKE

WAW-14EB63: FLAKE
Phil Watson (Principal Curator, Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery) identified the object as a Neolithic flake dating to -3500 to -2100. The blade has been knapped from a mottled mid grey coloured flint. The flake is large, and the edges are abraded forming a 90° angle. The flake has a patch of cortex remaining next to the striking platform. Initially the flake was considered to be a scraper, but the angle of the edge and lack of a rounded lower edge suggested otherwise. It measures 38.08mm long, 43.94mm wide and 9.14mm thick at the bulb of percussion. It weighs 15.09g.

WAW-158D95: FLAKE
Phil Watson (Principal Curator, Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery) identified the object as a notched blade flake dating to the Neolithic to early Bronze Age period (-3500 to -1500). The blade has been knapped from a dark brown flint. The blade has a triangular section, and is an irregular shape in plan. The upper oblique edge maybe damaged recently as the bulb of percussion is incomplete and the surface has a matte quality, whereas the majority of the blades’ surface is a shiny, slightly waxy texture. One side edge has a semi-circular notch which has been knapped. The notch is 8mm wide. Otherwise the blade measures 34.4mm long and 27.55mm wide. It weighs 4.58g.

SOMDOR-59D5C4: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
1 tertiary flake. Mottled mid to light grey flint with a milky patina. Traces of a bulb of percussion with small flaking scar ventrally. Several elongate flaking scars on the dorsal surface, probably from blade manufacture. Considerable edge damage.

SOMDOR-5E5E11: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Bi-facially worked, irregular flint core. Greyish white flint with a low gloss patina. There is a small area of greyish nodule cortex on one side. Most of the flaking is elongate and one one face only. There are one or two flaking scars on the opposite face. The main working on the core suggests bladelet production.

SOMDOR-5E7C42: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Awl made from a large secondary flake. Mid brownish grey flint with a mid-gloss milky patina and a large area of off-white nodule cortex. At the proximal end is a small striking platform below which the dorsal surface has flaked. There is a scarred bulb of percussion on the ventral face. The distal end of the flake has been trimmed on both edges to produce a small point. The edges incurve slightly and have numerous small flaking scars.

BH-6982A7: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A re-touched flint flake of probable early Neolithic date. An irregularly-shaped tool which appears to have been made fairly quickly. A small portion of the core platform exists and the reverse shows a clear bulb of percussion and rippling. The original cortex remains over approximately one third of the upper surface. The object has not been shaped apart from by a single row of re-touching along the exposed vertical side and along the wide horizontal bottom edge. The flint is dark grey in colour. The implement measures 35.4mm wide by 29.7mm high and 16.7mm thick. It weighs 17.85g.

BH-69B1F0: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A re-touched flint flake of probable early Neolithic date. An irregularly-shaped implement which has been made, probably in minutes, from a large flake. The reverse has a bulb of percussion and rippling, whilst the other broad face has been roughly fashioned into a convex surface through the removal of most of the flint cortex. There is a single row of fine re-touching along the curved top left hand corner (as you look at it) and a deeper area of fine re-touch to the horizontal bottom edge, resulting in the creation of a thick scraper tool. At the bottom right hand corner is a concave notch and this may also be a deliberately created feature. The flint surface is a weathered light blueish-grey colour. The tool measures 51.6mm long by 40.4mm wide and 17.2mm thick. It weighs 38.95g.

BH-69F005: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A re-touched flint flake of probable early Neolithic date. The flake has a small portion of the core platform and a strong bulb of percussion and rippling on the reverse. It is irregular in shape and its upper surface retains half of the original cortex. The other side has been finely re-touched on both the back and front to produce a cutting edge. The flint is dark greyish-brown in colour. The implement measures 31.4mm long by 21.4mm wide and 8mm thick. It weighs 5.33g.

BH-6AFB55: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A flint end scraper of probable early Neolithic date. The implement has been made from a flake. It has a convex bottom edge and converges to a point at the bulb of percussion end. Only the convex lower edge shows signs of having been worked, with several pressure flake scars visible. The flint is a heavily weathered creamy white colour. The implement measures 40.8mm long by 30.3mm wide and 5.8mm thick. It weighs 9.3g.

LEIC-6B5F10: ARROWHEAD
Late Neolithic oblique flint arrowhead, 48mm long and 24mm wide. The object is in good condition with a pale brown patina and weighs 5.49 grams. The arrowhead has two slightly curving sides which are covered in very fine re-touch. The base has a crescent shape with one edge sitting slightly lower than the other.

WAW-E87F35: TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT
Phil Watson (Principal Curator, Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery) identified the object being a possible Neolithic pointed tool dating to -3500 to -2100. The flake has been knapped from a light mottled grey coloured flint. The tool is a sub-rectangular in plan with the lower edge tapering to form a blunt point. The tool is a sub-triangle in section. The edges are slightly abraded, rather than knapped. It measures 35.84mm long and 15.11mm wide. It weighs 3.76g.

LIN-28AD54: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Flint knife. The knife is roughly triangular in plan and in cross-section, and has a flat striking platform and four main flake removals on the dorsal surface. There is cortex remaining on approximately 30% of the dorsal surface, on the left hand side of the knife. This left edge has some secondary working, however not as much as the right side, which looks damaged towards the distal end. The ventral surface is smooth and shows retouch along the edges. The flint is a mottled brown colour.

LIN-28CBC1: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Flint knife. The knife is roughly crescentric in plan and oval in cross-section. The left hand side of the knife is rounded and the original outer face of a nodule, being covered with a chalky-blue cortex. The right hand side has extensive retouch and the distal end has a broken point.

LIN-28FB57: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Flint scraper. The scraper is roughly circular in plan and plano-convex is cross-section. The scraper has no cortex remaining on the dorsal surface. There is secondary working around the entire object. The ventral surface looks to have two areas of frost-shattering. The areas revealed by the frost shattering have a chalky-blue patination, and the original flaked surface has a much denser chalky-blue patination, which might be re-cortification.

LIN-2920E4: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Flint knife. The knife is roughly triangular in plan and triangular in cross-section. The lithic has no cortex remaining. There is retouch along one edge and the distal end has been worked to a point, possibly enabling it be be used as an awl or borer.

Flint knife. The knife is roughly triangular in plan and plano-convex in cross-section. The lithic has no cortex remaining. The tool has some retouch along the right hand side, however the left is crescentric and has fine scaled secondary working along the crescent terminating with a fine point, enabling it to be used as a borer or awl.

POssible flint awl or borer. The lithic has no cortex remaning, and appears to be unworked, save for retouch at the distal end, making it into a fine point. The flint is a light mottled blue-cream colour.

BH-424812: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A flint axe of probable late Neolithic to early Bronze Age (Beaker period) date. The implement is finely made and has been shaped through pressure flaking from the centre outwards, which has created a central vertical ridge on both sides and sharp edges. The blade area is smoother and appears to have been ground and polished, although there are numerous rougher flake removal scars along the cutting edge. The implement is trapezoidal in plan and measures 36.3mm wide at the proximal (attachment), widening out gradually to 54.7mm at the blade. The long sides are not straight, however, and there is a definite kink towards the narrower end. This appears to be a deliberately-created feature, probably to increase rigidity in the hafted implement. The surface of the flint is a mottled mid orange colour. The object measures 123.3mm long by 13.9mm thick and weighs 110.47g.

NLM-8F84F2: POLISHED AXEHEAD

One edge of the flake has been worked into a thick point with semi-abrupt retouch in one direction. The ventral face has some retouch on the long edge opposite the point. The length of the flake is 56.7mm, the width is 43.6mm and the weight is 17.17g.

SWYOR-9055F1: AXEHEAD
Polished Neolithic axe head. The axe head is incomplete and has been heavily damaged although parts of the smooth polished surface remain intact. The butt of the axe head (where it would have been hafted) has some damage and may have been used as a tool itself at one stage. The blade end is also badly damaged with large pieces chipped away; none of the blade edge remains intact. The axe head has a slightly pointed oval section and is made from greenstone probably coming from the Great Langdale source in Cumbria. This Neolithic axe factory was in use from about 5,500 years ago and produced the raw material for the green-stone polished axes. Langdale axes are found throughout Britain. The axe head weighs 200.31g; the surviving measurements are 89.02mm in length, 53.81mm in width and 33.11mm in thickness.

LVPL-A73A62: FLAKE

SOMDOR-A808A2: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A small secondary flint flake, which has been snapped. There is a small striking platform at the proximal end and a clear bulb of percussion on the ventral surface. Waves radiate from here towards the distal end. Also at the proximal end is a small piece of nodule cortex. The mid-brown mottled flint has a mid-gloss patina. At the point where the flake has been snapped, its profile is triangular, with two even flaking scars on the dorsal side. The flake may be a by-product of blade manufacture.

SOMDOR-A87348: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A small secondary flint flake. There is a small striking platform at the proximal end and a bulb of percussion on the ventral surface. Several waves radiate from here towards the distal end. Also at the proximal end is a small piece of pebble cortex. There are a number of irregular flaking scars on the dorsal surface and the dark grey-brown mottled flint has a mid-gloss patina.

SOMDOR-A887C1: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
A small worked flint object which may be the tip of a tool such as a knife. The flint is unifacially worked, with small regular pressure flaking on the dorsal side. The striking platform and bulb of percussion are missing because the flint has snapped just above the tip. At this point, the profile of the object is triangular with 3 flaking scars on the dorsal side. The milky light grey mid-gloss patina has been removed by the retouch to reveal more beige-coloured flint beneath. It is therefore possible that this formed part of a waste flake which was reworked at a later date.

SOMDOR-A8ABB5: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
An irregular flint flake with unifacial retouch along one edge. There is a small piece of nodule cortex at the distal end. The colour of a the flint varies between light and dark grey with some mottling and the surface patination is mid-gloss.

HESH-BC50F6: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Flint waste flake (debitage) from tool production of probable Neolithic date (3500 - 2100 BC). The flake is irregular in plan and sub-triangular in cross section. The bulb of percussion on the reverse of the flake is complete, but a section has been partially removed by subsequent working. It is likely that this flake was a by-product (or waste flake / debitage) of tool making; if this is the case then it must have been once all the cortex had been removed (tertiary / third phase of tool making) as there is no evidence for cortex on the flint. This waste flake has then been re-used or utilised to form a scraper like tool. The evidence for this is the secondary flaking or retouch along one edge. This retouch is irregular, however, the underside (dorsal face) of the flake is highly polished suggesting a long period of use. There is also some reworking on the rear butt of the flake, near the bulb of percussion. The front face also has a number of angular hinge fractures present. These may be the result of the flint being of poor quality. The flint flake is a mid grey colour, with a number of large white flecks running through it. It measures 42mm length, 33.5mm width, is 10.4mm thick, and weighs 9.44 grams. A possible source for this flake is from a riverine or glacial deposit rather than from an area where flint occurs more frequently. This type of tool is typical of the Herefordshire / Marches area as sites for procuring flint are limited. This results in primary, secondary and tertiary waste flakes being utilised to make tools such as this.

SWYOR-BF4EE6: THUMB NAIL SCRAPER
Flint thumbnail scraper made from a flake and dating to the late Neolithic - Early Bronze Age. The scraper is sub-oval in shape with a finely retouched curved edge on the dorsal face. About a third of the edge in unworked - this is the butt area where the original flake was struck off the core. The dorsal surface is mostly covered in dark honey coloured cortex apart from on the retouched edges. The angle of retouch is about 45 degrees. The ventral surface has a pronounced bulb of percussion with ripples radiating from this point across the surface. There is no retouch on the ventral surface. The scraper weighs 6.27g and measures 21.9mm in length, 27.3mm in width and 9.9mm in thickness.

HESH-87DD45: DEBITAGE
Small piece of flint debitage (chunk or chip) probably dating from the Neolithic period 3500 - 2100 BC). The piece of flint is irregular in plan and profile and exhibits several areas of working. However, this work does not comprise of any tool type and probably represent waste from tool production. The flint itself is a poor quality with several flaws and also a hinge fracture. This type of flint is common to the Shropshire / Welsh Marches area where flint deposits are either glacial or riverine. The flint measures 15.8mm length, 12.7mm width, is 10.6mm thick and weighs 2.78 grams.

HESH-87ED11: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Flint scraper of probable Neolithic date (3500 - 2100 BC). The flake is irregular in plan and sub-triangular in cross section. The flake measures 48.8mm length, 37.9mm width, is 12.3mm thick and weighs 22 grams. The bulb of percussion on the reverse of the flake is complete and there is evidence of a number of hinge fractures on the opposite (front) surface. It is likely that this flake was a by-product (or waste flake / debitage) of tool making as there is a small amount of cortex (rough outer skin of the flint nodule) on the artefact. This area cortex covers less than 15% of the total surface area suggesting that this flake was produced during the second phase of tool production. This waste flake has then been re-used or utilised to form a scraper. The evidence for this is the extensive secondary flaking or retouch along one edge. The flint flake is a mid grey colour, when held up to the light a number of flaws can be seen in it. This suggests that it might have come from a riverine or glacial source rather than from an area where flint occurs more frequently. This type of tool is typical of the Shropshire / Marches area as sites for procuring flint are limited. This results in primary and secondary waste flakes being utilised to make tools such as this scraper.

HAMP-DE8C37: AXE
A Neolithic flint axe complete except for a small number of recent flakes. The blade of the axe is rounded and is missing a large flake from one surface. From here the axe tapers gradually to the butt end (W. 85.5-35mm) which is missing three large and some smaller flakes from the same surface, but would probably have been rounded. The surface from which the flakes are missing has a pale/white patina, except where the flakes are missing, indicating that these are the result of recent damage. The recent flakes reveal a beige/grey flint evident on the other surface where although there are some areas with similar patination, it is not as extensive. The axe is ovoid in profile.

KENT-43BE04: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Neolithic worked flake knapped from light grey flint. The microlith resembles a leaf shape, however this appears to be due to later breaks, rather than intentional knapping of a crude leafshaped arrowhead. The ventral surface has several large ripples extending from the proximal end. The flake is 30mm long, 10mm wide at the proximal end, extending to 20mm before tapering to 6mm at the distal end.

An early Neolithic leaf-shaped flint arrowhead, which has had the tip broken off. The arrowhead has been made from a flake, which was invasively retouched by pressure flaking. The working covers both faces. The butt is slightly rounded. The mottled light and dark grey flint has a mid-gloss patina.

SWYOR-AC5EF7: POLISHED AXEHEAD
Early Neolithic polished stone axehead or possibly an adze. The tool is incomplete (the butt has broken away) and has been ground so that the surface is smooth. The width of the axehead/adze is unusually narrow and it may have been ground for reuse or used as a small adze. The blade edge is complete and is sharp. The stone is a bluish grey colour and is likely to be Langdale stone - known as greenstone. The greenstone comes from the intrusion of a narrow vein of tuff in the volcanic rocks of Great Langdale in Cumbria. The stone was suitable for making highly polished axes as well as rougher tools; these were traded across large areas of Britain and Ireland. The tool weighs 59.17g and measures 67mm in length, 44mm in width and 10.8mm in thickness.

CORN-6C0C67: FLAKE
Flint conchoidal flake with smooth conchoidal fractures rippling along the ventral face away from the bulbar scar, or bulb of percussion, and similarly on the dorsal face, within the negative flake scar. There is retouch from the proximal end, down the right edge of the dorsal face, but the denticulations down the same edge on the ventral face look more like the resultant damage. This might have then been used as a crude saw, but there is no evidence of use wear, unless that is what has caused the damage to the proximal end. The colour of the flint is a mottled mid to dark grey. No cortex remains on the surface of the flake, which suggests that it is a tertiary flake. The length to breadth ratio is about 1:1. Andrefsky (1998), illustrates a similar conchoidal flake on page 16, Fig. 2.6(d). Bond (2004) illustrates a similar but larger flake on page 140, Fig.5.126, No.7, which is dated to the Later Neolithic.

CORN-6C3381: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Flint end and sidescraper, subrectangular in plan, trapezoidal in section, and triangular and arched in profile, with sub-parallel lateral margins, unimarginal worked edges on the right edge of dorsal face, and at the distal end. The right edge has been retouched to create a cutting edge with an angle of about 80º to 90º angle and distal end has been retouched to create an angle between 50º and 60º, which makes the edge effective for scraping but not acute enough to accidentally cut or slice the material being worked. The ventral side bears a long line of parallel scarring, running the length of the face. Flakes had previously been removed from the ventral face and the right edge of the ventral face, which is unworked, so that this tool may have initially been a core. The colour of the flint is a mottled mid to dark grey. There is some discolouration of the flint from iron staining on the surface of both faces. The ratio of length to breadth is about 2:1. Bond (2004) illustrates a similar 'prepared piece' from Clark (1960) on page 132, Figure 5.118, No.F23; and two similar scrapers, one on page 126, Fig.5.113, Riley Type 8, which is dated from the Late Neolithic to the Early Bronze Age; and the other on page 137, Fig.5.124, No.F18, which is dated to the Neolithic.

CORN-6C5618: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Flint scraper with a hinge fracture or hinge termination at the distal end of the ventral face. The dorsal face has been unimarginally retouched from the proximal end down both the right and left edges. The colour of the flint is a mottled beigey gray with litte specks of iron staining on both faces. No cortex remains on the surface of the flake, which suggests that it is a tertiary flake. The length to breadth ratio is 1:1. Andrefsky (1998), illustrates an example of a flake with a hinge termination on page 86, Fig. 5.1(c). Bond (2004) illustrates a similar type on page 124, Fig.5.113, Riley Type 3, which is dated to the Later Neolithic, and a similar example on page 141, Fig.5.127, Nos.6 & 8, which are dated to the Later Neolithic.

CORN-6C6A02: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Flint retouched notched scraper, saw or spurred piece. The flake is unimarginally retouched on the distal end, creating three notches and one spur, and on the right edge of the dorsal face. The colour of the flint is a translucent light to dark gray brown. About a third of the dorsal face is covered in cortex which suggests that this was a secondary flake. The ratio of length to breadth is about 1:1. Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example of a notched saw on page 143, Fig.5.129, No.F150, and spurred pieces, Nos.F153 & F154 which are all dated to the Later Neolithic.

CORN-6C7AB6: FLAKE
Flint conchoidal flake with smooth conchoidal fractures rippling along the ventral face away from the bulbar scar, or bulb of percussion, and similarly on the dorsal face, within the negative flake scars. There is unimarignal retouch from the proximal end, down the right edge of the dorsal face, creating a slight notch about half way along the edge. There is also unimarginal retouch down the right edge of the ventral face, creating a definite notch about half way along. These notches might have been made in preparation for knapping the flake into a leaf-shaped arrowhead, as it looks as if the direction of the scars would allow it. The colour of the flint is a translucent brown grey. No cortex remains on the surface of the flake, which suggests that it is a tertiary flake. The length to breadth ratio is about 1:1. Andrefsky (1998), illustrates a similar conchoidal flake with a notch in it on page 16, Fig. 2.6(a). Bond (2004) illustrates a similar but larger flake on page 140, Fig.5.126, No.8, which is dated to the Later Neolithic.
