County: Leicestershire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Palaeolithic (Upper) to Neolithic (Later) unretouched blade, 51mm long, 20mm wide, 7mm thick and 8.4g in weight. Made on a flint/chert that has turned a multitude of coulours through patination, including lght browns, blues and greys. The distal end still retains its original cortex as do both lateral edges. The central part of the dorsal face exhibits a flaked area of a number of unidirectional scars. Early stages of the creation of a blade core using a cortical nodule of stone presumably from a river.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Palaeolithic (Upper) to Neolithic (Later) unretouched blade, 47mm long, 10mm wide, 6mm thick and 2.5g in weight. Made on a light semi-translucent caramel brown flint that has turned an opaque light bluish grey through patination. The blade has been struck from a unidirectional blade core as evidence by a number of blade-like removals on the dorsal face. The blade has not been modified, although the proximal end has been prepared to a similar style as the en eperon style of the Upper Palaeolithic.

Palaeolithic (Upper) to Bronze age notch, 31mm long, 11mm wide, 4mm thick and 2.7g in weight. Made on flint that has turned an opaque light grey. Hard hammer struck flake with large butt that has been worked on the ventral face of the right lateral edge to create a notch. Dorsal face possesses some cortex and evidence for two orthogonal removals are visible on the left lateral edge.

Broad period: PALAEOLITHIC
County: Leicestershire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Palaeolithic (Upper) to Neolithic (Later) notch, 34mm long, 16mm wide, 4mm thick and 3.1g in weight. This elongated flake has been struck from a unidirectional core and was hard hammer struck. The original colour of the flint cannot be determined as the piece has turned entirely light blue through patination. The notch is situated at the proximal end along the left lateral edge. The dorsal face also shows preparation of the face.

Broad period: PALAEOLITHIC
County: Leicestershire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Palaeolithic (Middle) to Bronze Age (Later) notch, 34mm long, 16mm wide, 5mm thick and 3.4g in weight. This notch has been made on a blade that possesses a few Levallois characteristics. The notch itself is positioned along the left lateral edge on the ventral face. The dorsal face possesses a central parallel ridge that looks to have been created on the left by centripetal flaking and on the right by the removal of a previous blade, suggesting a recurrent technique. The flint is opaque and light grey in patination.

Palaeolithic (Middle) to Bronze Age (Later) flake, 44mm long, 36mm wide, 9mm thick and 16.4g in weight. The piece is now opaque light grey in colour however small areas indicate that the flint was originally a light caramel brown. This is a hard hammer struck slab-like flake that possesses a number of unidirectional flake scars on the dorsal face. The butt is facetted and the piece stilln retains a small amount of cortex.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Palaeolithic (Lower) to Bronxe Age (Later) flake, 48mm long, 28mm wide, 13mm thick and 17.3g in weight. Made on flint/chert that has turned white through patination. Post-depositional damage has left an area of light grey opaque patination also. Hard hammer struck flake with large butt and pronounced bulb. The dorsal ridges suggest a number of unidirectional removals and some orthogonal working. A central ridge has created a trianglur cross-section. The flake is also curved, due to a slight plunged and. .
