A near complete Early Bronze Age barbed and tanged flint arrowhead (2500-1500 BC) This arrowhead has been knapped from a pale brown / grey  coloured piece of flint. It is broadly sub-triangular in plan and lentoid in cross section.  It is broadly symmetrical in shape with one barb and the tang being complete. The other barb is broken close to the body of the arrowhead by a clean break or snap. Both the long sides of the arrowhead have been retouched to create sharp edges.  Similar flint barb and tanged arrowheads are associated with the Beaker phase of the Late / f…

An incomplete and plough rolled leaf-shaped arrowhead of probable Neolithic date (2900 - 2150 BC). The arrowhead is formed on a darker coarse brown coloured tertiary flint flake; both the dorsal and ventral faces are retouched. The arrowhead is a pointed oval shape in plan and lentoid in cross section. The tip is lost to a modern break. The butt of the arrowhead has been trimmed and extensively reworked but a vestige of a prepared striking platform is present. In profile the arrowhead is also lentoid. The dorsal and to a lesser extent the ventral faces have both had pressure (ripple) …

A complete leaf shaped flint arrowhead of probable earlier Neolithic date (4000 - 2700 BC) formed on a tertiary flake. The arrowhead is ogival / lentoid (a diamond shaped lozenge) in plan and lentoid in cross section. The arrowhead has been knapped from a mottled light-grey to brown flint which is opaque in places. Both faces of the flint show invasive, scaled, low angled retouch, with one face showing a slight scar, probably caused by a plough or similar machinery. The form is similar in shape to Green's Class 3B or 4B The arrowhead measures 26.5mm length, 14.9mm width, is 2.6mm t…
