An abraded tertiary debitage / waste flake of probable later Neolithic date or Early Bronze Age date (3500-1800 BC). From the form of the flake it is possible that this is an aborted barbed and tanged arrowhead discarded during knapping. A large pale grey coloured inclusion is present that would have prevented finer working. The flake is irregular in form having been struck as a blade like flake. One edge has been worked to create a pseudo-tang. The dorsal face is more heavily worked than the ventral although there is no evidence of retouch / finer working. The flint is a dark grey bl…

Oval in plan, triangular in section, this short flake has a clear striking platform, bulb of percussion, and percussion ripples. There is some possible fine retouch (bottom left of the first flint in the first picture), but the flake has suffered edge damage, and so I'm reluctant to describe it definitively as a scraper.

Primary working, hard hammer: the ventral face has a large bulb of percussion at the proximal end with concentric ripples radiating from the bulbar scar. Possible short, scaled, semi abrupt retouch on distal edge of dorsal face, but this is only in the cortex so is probably damage rather than retouch. Length 46.1mm, width 4…

A struck flint flake of probable Prehistoric date, potentially utilised as an expediency tool. An irregularly shaped tertiary flake of opaque black/grey flint. A striking platform survives at the proximal end with a diffuse bulb of percussion, but no 'lip' below the point of percussion. The distal end is lost to a natural break, but with probable use related wear on this edge. A number of irregular hinged removals on both the dorsal and ventral face appear more likely to be associated with later damage. Dimensions: length 35.7mm; width 34.7mm; thickness 7.5mm; weight 11.50g. Dat…

A flint flake of probable late Neolithic or Bronze Age date, c. 3000-1000 BC. A tertiary flake of a orange-brown flint patinated pale biege at the surface. At the proximal end a striking platform and (on the ventral face) relatively large bulb of purcussion, with bulbar scar, survive. A number of flake-like removal scars are present on the dorsal face, with one being hinged. At the proximal end of the dorsal face are a series of hinged removals, these break the patination but have started to repatinate, suggesting that they are not recent but are probably post-depositional. There is e…

An incomplete flint blade of probable Prehistoric date. A tertiary blade or blade-like flake of a translucent biege-grey flint with white-grey patination at the proximal end. Sub-parallel removal scars are present on the dorsal face, all seemingly struck from the same direction and the overall flake removal. The blade terminates in a natural break. There are no indications of retouch. Dimensions: length 17.4mm; width 9.5mm; thickness 1.6mm; weight 0.45g. Although worked, a single flake cannot be dated with any degree of certainty and a very general Mesolithic to Bronze Age date …

Three worked flint flakes of Prehistoric debitage, all secondary flakes of probable pebble flint, with one exhibiting evidence of retouch. The dating of such a small assemblage must remain highly tentative, however, the general crudeness of the knapping, as well as comparison to two cores found as part of the saem scatter (DEV-ED0824) may suggest a Neolithic to Bronze Age date, c. 3000-800 BC. DEV-667E4A is also part of this same scatter. 1. Secondary flake; brown flint mottled with plaer/white inclusions. c. 40% of distal end covered in cortex. 2 previous sub-parallel removals, bo…

10 peices of worked flint debitage, with the majority probably dating to the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age, although some may potentially be earlier (see notes). The assemblage contains at least six different flints, including one flake of chert and two which appear to have originated in beach pebbles. The other sources are of a translucent beige/brown flint (3), more highly patinated pale white/grey flint (1) and mottled pale grey flint (2). The assemblage contains one primary flake (from a beach pebble), four secondary flakes and five tertiary. With the exception of the patinat…

Two pieces of flint debitage probably dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, c. 4000-800 BC. 1. A fragment of worked flint, probably a piece of a larger core with natural breaks on three sides. The fragment is a secondary flake, with a small c. 15% amount of cortex at one end of the dorsal face; it is made of a coarse, mottled brown flint. The dorsal face exhibits three clear negative removal scars, with one, much smaller, stepped and cutting the previous scars probably being associated with the subsequent damage. Both of the other scars appear to have been struck from the same di…

A very large flint waste flake, utilised with the addition of a scraping edge, uncertain date, possibly late Bronze Age or Iron Age c.1000 - 1 BC. Description: The flake is a primary removal and very large and irregularly shaped but has roughly five sides in plan. The dorsal face has substantial cortex remaining and uneven poorly formed flaking. Along the right edge half way up there is some crushing retouch intended to blunt the edge. Just past this as the edge curves up to the point of the point of the flake there is short scaled semi-abrupt retouch which runs to the point of the…

A collection of two pieces of Bronze Age chert debtage (c. 2350- 800BC) Both pieces are tertiary flakes, as there is no cortex remaining and both show signs of multi-platform working. Flake A has been strongly repatinated by fire, to a creamy white colour , with a crackled appearance. The dorsal face retains evidence of three negative flake scars struck in apposing directions. While the ventral face, retains evidence of at least two if not possibly three striking platforms; due to the extent of re-patination it is impossible to indicate whether this flake has been hard or soft hamm…

30 knapped flint debitage probably dating to the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age, c. 2900-1600, based on the fairly crude nature of the flakes as well as the composition of the larger assemblage of which they form a part. Many of the flakes are fragmentary and appear to have been damaged, however all flakes included show at least some indication of being worked. Clear tools, utilised flakes and cores are discussed in separate records, however this group contains a possible scraper. Of the 30 flakes 20 retain at least some cortex on their dorsal face, with six flakes covered byco…

Grey flint with cortex spot, possible debitage. Thick flake with broad flakes struck from its dorsal side by multi-directional angled hard hammer working. The ventral surface is rippled and slightly concave. This might represent an abortive attempt to make a tool such as a fabricator or a plano-convex knife. Suggested date: Early Bronze Age, 2350-1600 BC. Length: 50.7mm, Width: 23.6mm, Thickness: 10.6mm, Weight: 12.33gms.

A lithic object that appears at firast glance to be a tanged and barbed arrowhead of Late Neolithic / Early Bronze Age date (c. 2500-1800 BC), however on closer inspection this appears to be a flake, of probable Brone Age date, however without the attributes of a retouched arrowhead; either this is a beginnings of an arrowhead lost or discarded before completion or it is just a flake that resembles an arrowhead in plan.
