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. Length: 49.8 mm Width: 28.6 mm Thickness…

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation Find awaiting validation
An incomplete flint blade dating to the Neolithic period, circa 4500-1500BC. The blade is sub-triangular in plan view and trapezoidal in section. There is damage to the proximal end of the blade, but with the exception of some small nicks, the distal end of the tertiary blade survives intact. More recent removals reveal a light grey flint beneath a mottled blue/light grey patina. The ventrical face is smooth, shiny and unworked with part of the bulb of percussion present just before the break. The dorsal face has been extensively worked and all the edges have been retouched.

A worked flint tool of Neolithic date, formed from a blade. The tool is perhaps either a knife or an unfinished leaf shaped arrowhead. It has invasive retouch on the dorsal face but not on the ventral face. The striking platform, bulbar scar and bulb of perussion are still intact at the proximal end. It is likely that these would have been removed and that both surfaces would have been subjected to invasive retouch if it were a complete arrowhead. There is an area of cortex at the distal end of the flint which perhaps rendered it unsuitable for further working and, if an arrowhead, it…

A prehistoric worked flint of probable Neolithic or early Bronze Age date, dating from circa 3500 to 1500 BC. The flint is clearly worked with an obvious striking platform and a bulb of percussion at the proximal end. It is incomplete and snapped, missing the distal end. At least half of the flint appears to be missing. Bifacial retouch has been applied to both lateral edges. On the dorsal face an area of cortex has been left on the left lateral edge, probably to facilitate comfortable handling of the object. The retouch on both lateral edges has served to blunt the blade here and may…

A possible worked flint possible blade (length: 53.7mm; width: 17.5mm; thickness: 8.1mm; weight: 7.43g). General working is recognisable on the dorsal and ventral. The bulb of percussion is no longer visible on the ventral, but some ripples or 'lunettes' are still visible running down the flint's length. There are smaller worked areas along the left side of the ventral. Part of the core is still visible at one end.

A Neolithic flint blade, dating between 4000-2200 BC (length: 28mm; width: 28.2mm; thickness: 11mm; weight: 8.70g). The bulb of percussion is clearly visible on the ventral side below the striking platform with only slight and sparse radiatting ribbles or 'lunettes'. There does also appear to be possible radial scars radiatting outwards from the bulb. On the dorsal, there is a line of off-white cortex along the left side with a large flaking scar in the centre running nearly to the end of the tool's length. A curved/ smei-circular blade to the right side on the dorsal which continu…
