County: Cheshire West and Chester
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete early to middle Neolithic flint leaf arrowhead dating to c.4000-2900 BC.
It is a leaf arrowhead and is lentoid in plan and bi-convex in section. It is broadly pear-shaped with its upper edges incurved, the extent and type of retouch is invasive and scaled with a low angle on the dorsal face. The extent of retouch is also shorter on the ventral face.The arrowhead retains no cortex and is therefore a tertiary flake. The flint is light brown in colour and increasingly transparent towards the worked edges. A similar pear shaped example is …

Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Cheshire West and Chester
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A complete ground and polished Type 1, Cornish greenstone axehead dating to the Neolithic period (c. 4000-2400 BC).
The axehead is pointed oval in cross section at the cutting end and butt end. When viewing its side profile (looking at the larger, flatter faces of the axe), it tapers steadily from the broader cutting edge towards the butt end. When looking at the axe along the longer edges, both the cutting edge and butt end of the axe are a similar width, with the widest section being in the middle of the axehead.
It has suffered some damage, with the original polished sur…
