Record ID: NARC-2EABCA
Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Buckinghamshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete flint Scraper of Neolithic date (3450-2100 BC). The lithic is sub-ovate in plan and bi-convex in section. The proximal end retains some cortex while the distal edge is curved. All edges with the exception of the proximal end have fine semi-abrupt retouch. The ventral surface is slightly convex with six negative scars and corresponding arises. The lithic retains some cortex and is therefore a secondary flake.
The flint is dark/light grey in colour, the cortex is light brown in colour.

Secondary hard hammer struck flake, of mottled dark and mid-grey flint, an area of brown within the flint to the distal end and one side of the bulbs of percussion; this is doubled from being partially struck twice to detatch the flake from the core. Neolithic to Bronze Age, 4,000 to 2,350 BC.

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Surrey
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A later prehistoric end scraper struck from a secondary nodule fragment of dark grey flint with a light brown cortex retained over 60% of the dorsal surface. The flake has been removed by hard hammering and there is no evidence of a prepared striking platform. The distal end has long semi abrupt parallel retouch defining a working edge which has been largely obscured by battering damage, some of this is clearly post depositional as it has broken the patina.

Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Surrey
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Neolithic or early Bronze Age scraper struck from a secondary flake of grey flint, 49.4mm in length. The distal end and adjacent part of the right side has short abrupt retouch to define a working edge. The other side of the distal end is broken, and has battering damage, probably pre-dating the removal of the flake from the core. A small area of light brown coloured cortex is retained on one side of the proximal end of the dorsal surface, which tapers to a small striking platform.

Record ID: GLO-AF3EF7
Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Gloucestershire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Neolithic scraper on a secondary flake. This has an off-centre arise on the dorsal and a very large bulb of percussion on the ventral. The forward edge has semi-abrupt, direct retouch that creates a curved leading edge. The flint is covered in a creamy patina with light grey patches, 3% cortex on the leading edge.

County: Surrey
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An end scraper struck from a secondary flake or nodule fragment of dark grey flint with a light brown cortex retained over 40% of the dorsal surface. The distal end has long semi abrupt parallel retouch defining a working edge; there is also possibly secondary working or retouch evident along the left side long edge although this is less clearly defined.

Object type: CHISEL
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Surrey
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A small fragment of finely worked white flint, 12.1mm in length, sub rectangular in shape with a flat lenticular cross section. Both faces have long low angle intrusive retouch. The fragment probably represents the cutting edge from a small Neolithic flint chisel.

County: Surrey
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A triangular flint blade of probable Neolithic to Bronze Age date, 43.7mm in length and struck from a patinated grey flint with a small patch of cortex on the distal end. The right side of the long edge towards the distal point has been worked with short abrupt retouch suggesting possible use as a piercer and there is a second patch of retouch around a notch on the left side long edge, suggesting that the tool may have been multi functional. This retouch has clearly broken through the blue-grey patination suggesting later prehistoric re-use of a much earlier struck blade, pos…

Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Hampshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Neolithic flint nosed or hollow scraper struck from a secondary flake of grey brown flint. The distal end and left side long edge has short abrupt retouch defining two slightly concave working edges, with further retouch around the rounded projection between, on the left corner which has been similarly worked to create a "nose". The proximal end retains a small patch of cortex.

Object type: LITHIC IMPLEMENT
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A secondary flake of dark grey brown flint which appears to have been removed by hard hammer from a nodule and re-used as a tool, probably in the later prehistoric period. The distal end is triangular with steep sides defined by long and short semi-abrupt retouch into a working point. The right side long edge has scaled low angle retouch on the ventral face to refine a cutting edge suggesting the tool may have had a variety of functions.

Object type: MICROLITH
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Surrey
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete flint microlith of early Mesolithic date (Clark Group F; Jacobi Group C, 10a), probably a Horsham point. The original form was asymmetrical and triangular. One long side is backed with abrupt retouch, the convex side feathers to an edge which has a patch of short abrupt retouch blunting it at the proximal end and an area of what may be use related damage towards the distal end. The proximal end is concave with a hollow base defined by abrupt retouch. The distal point has broken off.
