An incomplete struck / knapped blade, formed from a tertiary debitage flake, of probable Neolithic dating (c. 4,000 BC to c. 2, 350 BC). The probable blade has a sub triangular cross section, and is sub triangular in shape. Retouch is present along the long edges and the short side (short, subparallel, abrupt). The probable blade has been made from a piece of tertiary debitage, probably the remains of a core for making blade. The flake has been made from a dark grey flint, with little surface patination.

County: Staffordshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
An incomplete flint probable arrowhead of Neolithic-Bronze Age dating (AD 3450-1200 BC). The artefact broadly resembles a Leaf-shaped arrowhead. It is lentoid in plan and bi-convex in section. Both the dorsal and ventral surfaces have covering scaled flaking and all edges, with the exception of the proximal, have fine low angled retouch. The proximal edge has been abruptly blunted, forming a notched aspect at its base. The lithic retains no cortex and is therefore a tertiary flake.The flint is grey in colour.

A complete flint dagger or knife of Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age dating (2, 700 BC to 1,600 BC). The flint dagger or knife is a core tool, it has been formed on a large blade like knife from a prepared core. The flint matrix is mid grey with significant white inclusions and grey/black veining. The flint has been chosen to create this piece because of this. Likewise the inclusions will make the piece more difficult to knap. It was made from a prepared blade with lentoid section. The upper dorsal and lower vental faces have been reflaked to create the broad form. Then s…

The ventral surface displays a couple of deliberately flake scars, and there is probable deliberate retouch around the edge. The flint is of a poor quality with several flaws, which resulted in hinge fracturing. Uncontrolled fractures due to plough roll and movement in the soil has meant that the controlled flake scars are hard to determine. The flake is a light grey to white colour, with orange spots.

Possible retouched flint projectile (arrowhead) of Neolithic date (3500 - 2100 BC). The projectile point has been formed from a tertiary waste flake / debitage and is broadly leaf shaped (sub oval) in plan. It was not completed due to faults in the flint matrix and was rejected as a projectile (arrowhead). Evidence for retouch or secondary working can be seen along the pointed end / edge of the flake. The reworking is fairly rough, with small facets taken off to form a crude serrated edge. The flint is mid brown colour, with some white patination present. It shows limited abrasion evi…

Four tertiary waste flakes / debitage of flint dating to the Later Neolithic - early Bronze Age (2900 - 1800 BC). All of the flakes are relatively small, being irregular in plan and profile with a series of varying sized flake facets present on the outer faces. All demonstrate a series of varying sized flake facets present on the outer faces. There is no evidence of reworking or secondary flaking present, however all three flakes do demonstrate signs of post-depositional damage, probably from plough rolling. These flakes are clear evidence of flint knapping at this site. They have a c…

Three secondary waste flakes / debitage of flint dating to the Neolithic or early Bronze Age periods (2900 - 1800 BC). The flakes are irregular in shape and demonstrate several flint facet scars. The flakes have less than 50% cortex (outer rind) present, which is a mid grey white colour, possibly originally from a chalk or limestone based procurement source. There are small flake facets present along the edges of each flake, most of these are uncontrolled, probably from plough roll. There is no evidence of reworking or secondary flaking present on any of the three flakes. The combined…

An irregular primary waste flake / debitage of probable Neolithic date (3500 - 2100 BC). This piece of flint has been deliberately removed from the outer face of a flint nodule to prepare it for further work and tool production. Conchoidal ripples and a bulb of percussion are present on the dorsal (reverse) side. It measures 27.89mm length, 15.05mm width, 5.31mm thick and weighs 2.0 grams.

A tertiary waste flake / debitage of flint dating to the later Neolithic - early Bronze Age (2900 - 1800 BC). The flake is semi-circular in plan. A bulb of percussion and a few conchoidal ripples are present on the dorsal (lower) surface. There are signs of secondary retouch along the outer edges, possibly for reuse of the flake as a scraper. There are flint scars present from post depositional damage such as plough roll. This flake is clear evidence of flint knapping at the site. The flake measures 32.71mm length, 13.56mm width, 5.39mm thick and weighs 2.5 grams.

A secondary waste flake / debitage of flint dating to the Neolithic or early Bronze Age periods (2900 - 1800 BC). The flake is subrectangular in shape. A central ridge is present on the ventral (upper) surface. A bulb of percussion and conchoidal ripples are present on the dorsal (lower) surface. The flake has less than 50% cortex (outer rind) present, which is a mid grey white colour, possibly originally from a chalk or limestone based procurement source. There are small flake facets present along the edges of the flake, most of these are uncontrolled, probably from plough roll. Ther…

An irregular primary waste flake / debitage of probable Neolithic date (3500 - 2100 BC). This piece of flint has been deliberately removed from the outer face of a flint nodule to prepare it for further work and tool production. Conchoidal ripples are present on the dorsal (reverse) side. There are several flint removal scars that are mostly likely the result of plough roll. It measures 45.17mm length, 41.13mm width, 11.65mm thick and weighs 19.4 grams.

Knapped and flaked tertiary flint flake / debitage or possible scraper of later Neolithic date. The flake is broadly sub-rectangular in plan and D shaped in cross section. There is a crescent shaped post depositional fracture present towards the proximal end of the flake. On the ventral (reverse) face clear evidence of conchoidal fractures and bulb of percussion are present. The majority of secondary work has been applied to the dorsal (upper) face of the flake. The ventral (reverse) is relatively un-flaked. The reworking / retouch has been applied to the distal (lower) end of the fla…

Three tertiary waste flakes / debitage of flint dating to the Later Neolithic - early Bronze Age (2900 - 1800 BC). Two of the flakes are relatively small, being irregular in plan and profile with a series of varying sized flake facets present on the outer faces. The third flake is approximately double the size of the other two, is subrectangular in shape, with a series of varying sized flake facets present on the outer faces. There is no evidence of reworking or secondary flaking present, however all three flakes do demonstrate signs of post-depositional damage, probably from plough r…
