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.

Complete geometric microlith, of mid grey flint with misty paler grey patination, of Jacobi, R. (1978) Group 4, obliquely, finely, and very steeply retouched (c. 90 degrees to the faces) to form a convex “back” to the also convex sharp edge opposing the blunt retouch, the whole flint giving a lenticular plan form with an isosceles triangle cross section. Mesolithic, possibly late due to the small size, 7,000 to 4,000 BC.

A small tertiary flint flake microlith of Mesolithic date c. 10000 - 4000 BC. The flake is of dark grey with ridge scars from previously struck flakes on the dorsal surface, and ripples on the ventral surface. The bulb of percussion has been removed, and there is semi abrupt retouch running parallel down 13.68mm of the flake edges. Both the distal and proximal end of the flake appear to have been broken. The flake measures 26.38mm in length, 11.5mm in width and is 4.79mm thick. It weighs 1.49g

A complete flint microlith of Mesolithic date, c.7000-4000 BC. The lithic is sub-triangular in plan and section. The dorsal surface contains two predominant negative scars with corresponding arises. The proximal and distal edges have been abruptly blunted and the right hand edge contains a minor amount of semi-abrupt retouch. The ventral surface is smooth displaying ripples of percussion. The lithic retains a no cortex and is therefore a tertiary flake. The flint is light grey in colour with cream inclusions throughout. Length: 14.3mm, Width: 12.6mm, Thickness: 2.2mm, Weight: 0.2g. …

A complete flint Microlith of Mesolithic date (9,000-3,450 BC). The object is sub-rectangular in plan and plano-convex in section. The dorsal surface contains a single predominant negative scar and retained cortex along the left-hand edge. The proximal and distal ends have been blunted. The left- and right-hand edges have fine semi-abrupt retouch. The ventral surface is flat with ripples of percussion emanating from the proximal end. The object retains some cortex and is therefore a secondary flake. Length: 19.25mm, Width: 5.07mm, Thickness: 3.81mm, Weight: 0.4g. The flint is br…

An incomplete knapped lithic implement of possible Mesolithic date, c.7000 - 4000 BC. The implement is a flint microlith formed of a tertiary flake which is sub-rectangular in plan and D-shaped in section. The ventral surface is smooth and flat. The dorsal surface has a prominent ridge and displays short, stepped, semi-abrupt retouch along the edges. The tip of the object appears to be lost, either through retouch, use-wear or post-depositional damage. The flint is mid-grey in colour. The implement is 31.11mm long, 15.07mm wide, 4.76mm thick and weighs 2.09g. Microliths are…
