Object type: CORE
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint blade core, probably dating to the Neolithic period. The core is fabricated on a piece of dark brown flint .There is a small area of off-white cortex remaining on one side. There is a broad striking platform prepared from a single, lateral strike with a second, smaller striking platform perpendicular to this. A number of blades and flakes have been struck from both platforms.

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A scraper fabricated on a thermal flake of mottled brown flint. The scraper is tongue-shaped in plan. One face has circular ripples radiating from a central point and the opposing face is covered in pale grey cortex. One area of the cortex is damaged, probably from the action of agricultural machinery rather than being deliberate. One edge of the flake has been worked along its entire length using short, scaled, semi-abrupt retouch to produce a scraping edge. This scraper is probably Neolithic in date.

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Published
A scraper fabricated on a thermal flake of dark grey flint. The scraper is sub-triangular in plan and appears to be an old thermal flake, with good repatination, that has been subsequently reworked. One face has circular, radiating ripples across it and the opposing face has a large area of pale grey cortex. The narrow end of the scraper has been worked using invasive, parallel, low-angle retouch to create a narrow, rounded scraping tip. There is also extensive short, scaled, abrupt retouch along one edge to produce a second scraping edge. This scraper is probably Neolithic in date.

Object type: BURIN
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A probable burin fabricated on a small secondary flake of dark brown flint. The flake is sub-triangular in plan with a large bulb of percussion and ripples across the ventral face. The dorsal face has the scars of two previous flake removals. There is a small area of light brown cortex along one edge. The narrowest point of the flake has had a single spall removed from the tip, down the dorsal face at approximately 60 degrees to create a sharp, chisel-shaped point. This object may have been used as a burin for gouging or as a small knife for cutting. It is probably early Neolithic …

County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A scraper fabricated on a thick primary flake of brown flint. The flake is sub-triangular in plan and has ripples of percussion across the ventral face but no bulb of percussion as this has been lost through further working of the flake. The dorsal face is covered in grey cortex. The distal end of the flake and one edge leading to it have been worked into a rounded end scraper using long, parallel, semi-abrupt retouch. The flake has also been worked into a point at the truncated proximal end using short, scaled, semi-abrupt retouch. The flake would probably have be used as both an end…

A borer fabricated on a thermal flake of pale grey flint. The flake is sub-triangular in plan and has circular ripples of percussion on one face with the opposing face covered in an off-white cortex. One edge of the flake, at the narrowest end, has been worked using short, scaled, semi-abrupt retouch to narrow the flake even further and produce a sharp point. This has been further enhanced by the removal of two small spalls struck downwards from the tip. The retouch along the edge also serves to create a scraping edge making this a dual-purpose tool perhaps. It is probably Neolithic i…

A scraper fabricated on a tertiary flake of red/brown flint. The flake has a large bulb of percussion with ripples of percussion spreading out from it across the ventral face. The dorsal face shows the scars of several previous blade removals at various angles to each other. There is no cortex visible on the flake. One edge of the flake, at the distal end, has been worked using short, scaled, semi-abrupt retouch to produce a scraping edge. It is probably Neolithic in date.

County: Lincolnshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A notched scraper fabricated on a secondary flake of pale honey-coloured flint. The flake is sub-semi-circular in plan. It has the scars of two previous blade removals on the dorsal face but the ventral face is very flat with no evidence of a bulb of percussion or rippling. There is a small area of cream-coloured cortex along one edge. At one end of the flake, a notch has been worked into the edge using short, scaled, abrupt retouch. This scraper probably dates to the Neolithic period.

A scraper fabricated on a secondary flake of honey-coloured flint. The scraper is sub-circular in plan with a large bulb of percussion and ripples across the ventral surface. There is a large hinge fracture at the distal end. The dorsal face is free of cortex but uneven with no obvious flake scars.

A flint hollow scraper probably dating to the later Neolithic to Bronze Age. The scraper is fabricated on a thick, secondary flake of pale brown flint, sub-triangular in plan. One face of the scraper shows the negative scar of a single blade removal with a hinge fracture at the distal end. The opposing face has an area of off-white cortex remaining in the centre with some long, scaled, low-angle retouch surrounding it helping to thin the flake. One edge of the flake has been worked into a concave scraper using short, scaled, semi-abrupt retouch. The opposing edge is thicker and largel…

A flint blade core, probably dating to the Neolithic period. The core is fabricated on a small nodule of black flint .There is a large area of grey cortex remaining on one side with some smaller areas on the opposing side.

A flint borer or piercer fabricated on a primary flake from a nodule of grey/brown flint. There is no bulb of percussion and no ripples of percussion evident on the ventral face but there are two patches of chalky off-white cortex. The dorsal face is completely covered in the same chalky cortex. One edge of the flake has been thinned using long, parallel, shallow retouch. At one end of this thinned area, a deep notch has been worked using short, scaled, abrupt retouch, creating a point on one 'corner' of the flake. This point has been further worked using short, scaled, abrupt retouch…

A flint borer or piercer fabricated on a thick tertiary flake of dark grey flint. There are the remains of a flat striking platform at the proximal end and a large bulb of percussion and ripples of percussion across the ventral face. The dorsal face has the scars of two previous flake removals, one ending in a large hinge fracture. The thickening of the flake at the point of this hinge fracture has been utilised to create a boring or piercing point at the distal end using short, scaled, abrupt retouch along one edge and around the tip of the point.
