A retouched flint flake of suggested middle Neolithic to early Bronze Age date c. 3300-1000 BC.  The secondary flake is elongated and sub-triangular in plan and cross-section; a small section of cortex surviving at the distal edge which has a chip at the terminal with fresh breaks suggesting more recent damage. The ventral surface is slightly concave with a pronounced bulb of percussion and raised rippling suggested hard hammer working. The dorsal surface has five removal scars with crude removals at the proximal end, possibly damage, but some finer …

A flint flake or bladelet of Mesolithic date (c. 9000 - 4000 BC). The flint is grey in colour. It is a secondary flake with a tiny area of cortex on the distal end of the flake remaining. The flake has a glossy surface, with a scattering of pale grey inclusions on the dorsal face. In plan it is sub-rectangular and in cross-section it is sub-triangular. At the proximal end, the bulb of percussion is missing due to a transverse break. However, the conchoidal fracture marks are present on the ventral surface; they are shallow, indicating that a soft hammer has bee…
