A collection of five worked flints (collective weight: 27.21g), as listed below: 1. One core rejuvenation flake with a probable end scraper at the base, probably dating to the Bronze Age between c. 2200 – 800 BC. The flake has multiple dorsal scars and is struck off and ‘rejuvenated’, therefore creating a fresh flaking bed on the core face, and prepares the core platform and face for further removals. There is a small area of retouch at the end. 2. One awl with retouch at either side of main protrusion, probably dating to the Bronze Age between c. 2200 – 800 BC. Clive Bond …

A complete cast copper alloy flat sub-rectangular strap end, dating to the 10th century AD (length: 30.9mm; width: 19mm; thickness: 3.1mm; weight: 6.62g).

The strap end in reddish brown in colour, but very littl…
