Flint flake with some retouch probably dating to the Neolithic. The flake is roughly trapezoidal in shape and has some fine retouch along the right dorsal edge up to the distal tip of the flake forming a sharp, slightly serated edge. This was probably to create some a cutting or scraping tool. The flake measures 21.9mm in length, 14.9mm in width and 2.3mm in thickness.

Flint microlith, probably dating to the mesolithic period. The tool is semi-circular in shape and has a fine retouched edge along the curved side for use as a scraper. There is a small notch on one edge of the tool and a sharp protruding corner which also possibly had a function.

Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
Retouched blade. The blade has parallel edges and a rounded proximal end; there is retouch all around these edges on the dorsal surface. The tool was probably used as a knife as the edges are slightly serrated. The distal end of the tool widens out and comes to a sharp point at the top of the right dorsal edge and this may have also been functional – this end deceptively looks like the butt of the blade but the bulb of percussion is visible on the ventral surface at the rounded end. The blade weighs 2.45g and measures 36.6mm in length, 13.35mm in width and 7.05mm in thickness.

Four small flint flakes with no retouch. The flakes range in size from 12mm in length (largest flake) to 10mm (smallest flake). The flakes do not all come from the same source but are all waste from flint or chert knapping and probably date to the Mesolithic.
