Record ID: SUR-E67C13
Object type: AXEHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Surrey
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A flint axehead of Neolithic date, 133mm in length, struck from a mottled grey flint and bifacially worked. The axehead is symmetrical on two axes and has a lenticular cross section, flaring smoothly to a rounded cutting edge 58.7mm wide. There is a large area of damage to the front edge which may be post depositional in origin. There are no areas of polishing. A patch of white cortex is retained at the centre of one face.

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: West Sussex
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A scraper struck from a dark brown flint, 49mm in length, probably of Neolithic date. The scraper is semi-circular and there is semi-abrupt parallel retouch, most noticeably on one side. The dorsal surface and proximal end retain patches of cortex with no evidence for a prepared striking platform. The surface demonstrates water polish.

Object type: AXEHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A fragment comprising the butt end of a flint axehead of Neolithic date, 108.5mm in length, made from a pale brown flint which has been bifacially worked and tapers to a rounded end. The axehead has a lenticular cross section and has broken across the middle. There is no evidence of polishing.

Object type: CORE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A sub conical flint blade core of later Mesolithic date with a single striking platform and removals around half of the circumference. The distal tip appears to have some long, low angle parallel retouch suggesting re-use as a scraper or other type of tool.

Object type: FABRICATOR
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
An incomplete flint fabricator, 54.6mm in length, struck from a brown flint and of potential Mesolithic to early Bronze Age date. The tool has a triangular cross section and is worked on the dorsal surface only, with abrupt scaled retouch along the sides. The distal tip has low angle retouch to define a wedge shape with a rounded end. The ventral surface is unworked and the tool has broken across its width.

Record ID: SUR-E8E27D
Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A crudely worked possible side or hollow scraper made from a nodule fragment of dark brown flint, 61.9mm in length. The dorsal surface retains around 50% of its cortex. There is a patch of short abrupt scaled retouch along one slightly side, suggesting a use as a scraper. The proximal end appears to have battering damage.

Record ID: SUR-E8D015
Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A crudely worked notched or hollow scraper made from a nodule fragment of dark brown flint, 59.9mm in length. The dorsal surface retains around 70% of its cortex. There are patches of short abrupt retouch around the sides, most noticeably on the distal end and along a concave edge on one side suggesting a use as a multi-functional scraper. The distal end appears to have some damage.

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation

Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: BRONZE AGE
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A retouched flake or side scraper of probable Bronze Age date, struck from a secondary flake of brown flint, 53.8mm in length. One side has short abrupt scaled retouch defining a working edge. The dorsal surface retains around 50% cortex and the ventral surface has pronounced ripples suggesting hard-hammered removal.

Record ID: SUR-E878F9
Object type: SCRAPER (TOOL)
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Greater London Authority
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A Neolithic to Bronze Age hollow scraper struck from a tertiary flake of brown flint, 38.8mm in length. The distal end is concave with short abrupt retouch defining a working edge. The proximal end tapers and has been retouched with long low angle retouch to reduce the striking platform.
