Four struck flints. 1. Single-platform core made from black gravel flint with cortex on most unworked surfaces. Length 41 mm, width 60 mm, thickness 23 mm. Later prehistoric. 2. Secondary flake with hinge fracture, made from mottled black and pale grey/white flint. Later prehistoric. 3. Secondary flake with use-wear or recent agricultural damage on the edge. Very obtuse striking angle. 4. Secondary flake, or possibly the result of agricultural equipment damage and hence a 'natural' flake. Very irregular. Black gravel flint with some cortex. The poor quality of this assembl…

Record ID: SF9076
Object type: POLISHED AXEHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Norfolk
Workflow stage: Published
Long narrow sub-triangular part-polished flint axehead. It is polished all over except for the larger flake scars along the edges. The blade is 41 mm wide and the axe then tapers, with straight sides, to a very narrow butt just 8 mm wide. The axe is complete, apart from two largish (recent?) chips to the blade and one from each edge; there are also two linear scrapes, both brown so perhaps from corroded iron, on one face. The flint is a blotchy pale/medium grey, appearing to be more pale brown where chipped.

Record ID: SF8879
Object type: AXE
Broad period: MESOLITHIC
County: Cambridgeshire
Workflow stage: Published
Small flint axe/chisel, with bifacial shallow flake scars and a tranchet cutting edge on one face. Black flint is visible where there is recent damage on the edges and at the butt, but otherwise it is patinated medium grey. Probably Mesolithic, as suggested by the tranchet edge, although the shallow cross-section could possibly suggest a Neolithic date.

Record ID: SF8848
Object type: AXEHEAD
Broad period: NEOLITHIC
County: Suffolk
Workflow stage: Published
Complete but very small flaked flint axehead, with slight polishing. The sides are convex, the butt is rounded and the cross-section is lenticular. The polishing is restricted to the higher areas of each face (very restricted on one face) and the edge of one side only - none is present on the oppsite side or the curved cutting edge at the wider end. The lack of polish on the cutting edge and one side, together with the small size, suggest that the axe may have been cut down from a larger axe, though as the existing polish is close to the unpolished edges there should only have been …
