A Neolithic Greenstone axe presumed to be of Group VI (6), a product of the Langdale Pike axe factory. This example is an edge-polished flint axe, limited polishing it typical of the late Neolithic. It is covered in scaled and low angle flaking. The axe is pointed oval in cross-section and is broadly sub-rectangular, with a rounded polished cutting edge and a tapered, abraded and rounded butt. The Langdale greenstone axes were traded from a quarry on Langdale Pike, Cumbria, and their distribution around the Humber estuary is denser than anywhere except around the p…

A near-complete flint barbed and tanged arrowhead dating to the late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age. The arrowhead has covering, scaled, low angle retouch all over and is missing only the terminal of the shank and of one of the barbs. The flint is mottled grey with a cream-blue patina. Arrowheads of this type were in use during the "Beaker Period" of the Late (final) Neolithic to Early Bronze Age, 2,300 to 1,700 BC.
