A late Mesolithic flint bladelet dating to the period c. 7000 - 4001 BC. The bladelet is sub-rectangular in plan with a slight curve along the length of the blade. The dorsal surface exhibits three negative flake removal scars with two smaller negative flake removal scars. The ventral surface retains a small bulb of percussion, indicating manufacture by soft-hammer striking. The flint is mottled mid - light grey in colour.

A Mesolithic to Neolithic flake fragment. The flake is broken above the ventral end. There is a visible striking platform and bulb of percussion on the ventral face. The dorsal face has a number of parallel arises on the left of the dorsal face. There are a number of small losses on the right hand side of the dorsal face which could be small scalar retouch, there is no patina on the retouch which suggests accidental damage. The flake has a light grey patina on the surface. The flake fragment is 24.9 mm in length, 16.25 mm wide and weighs 2.1 grams.

An incomplete secondary blade probably dating to the Late Mesolithic (6500-4300 BC). The blade is snapped at the proximal end. There is possible evidence of retouch on both the left and right sides of the ventral face, this could also be due to wear. Three previous strikings are visible on the dorsal face creating a sub-triangular cross section. The flint is a mottled brown colour. Length: 22.0mm, Width: 14.25mm, Thickness: 4.8mm, Weight: 1.53g

4 fragments of bladelets probably dating to the Late Mesolithic (6500-4300 BC). Three blades are snapped, one proximal end, one distal and one is from the middle of the blade. The fourth piece has a hinge fracture at the distal end with removals to one corner which may indicate it was deliberatly snapped. Two fragments are of a similar mid-grey colour, one fragment is light grey in colour, the other a translucent dark grey. The combined weight is 3.67 grams.
