Neolithic (Early) to Bronze Age (Later) unretouched blades, 4000 BC to 501 BC, grouped weight of 2g. Two small unretouched blades found in close proximity. Made on the same flint and look similar although one has been struck from a unidirectional blade core whereas the other form a bidirectional blade core.

Neolithic (Early) to Bronze Age (Later) unretouched bladelet, 4000 BC to 501 BC. 29mm long, 8mm wide, 2mm thick and 0.7g in weight. Made on a mid brown translucent flint. Small bladelet struck from a small unidirectional blade core. The striking platform was facetted and the dorsal face possesses a number of small flake scars produced by previous bladelet removals.

Neolithic (Early) to Bronze Age (Later) unretouched blade, 4000 BC to 501 BC, 35mm long, 11mm wide, 5mm thick and 2.6g in weight. Made on a mid-caramel brown translucent flint that has a slight grey tinge presumably as the process of patination has begun to take place. The dorsal face possesses 3 unidirectional flake scars and the butt was heavily prepared. Some cortex remains on the distal part of the blade. Struck from a small very well prepared blade core.

Neolithic (Early) to Bronze Age (Later) retouched blade, 4000 BC to 501 BC. 32mm long, 11mm wide, 5mm thick and 2.1g in weight. Small broken blade that has been light modified. The flint is dark brown and semi-translucent, however patination is causing this piece to turn an opaque dark grey. Some cortex remains on the dorsal face along with a bidirectional flake scar down the centre. Struck from a small exhausted core.

Neolithic (early - Late) piercer, 69mm long, 21mm wide, 8mm thick and 9.3g in weight. Made on a blade struck using a light cream opaque chert. The right side of the blade still possesses cortex. The central and left parts of the dorsal face possess two parallel flake scars that create a central ridge struck unidirectionally. The proximal end has been worked and pointed into a piercer.

Early to Later Neolithic unretouched blade, 4000 BC to 2351 BC, 45mm long, 21mm wide, 9mm thick and 5.8g in weight. Made on a light brown semi-translucent flint that has started to turn an opaque grey through patination. The dorsal face possesses cortext and two orthogonal flake scars originating from the right side. It looks like this was originally the base of the core when worked from the othe side due to the cortext bounding the fake scars along the left side.

Early to Later Neolithic unretouched blade, 4000 BC to 2351 BC, 51mm long, 15mm wide, 9mm thick and 6g in weight. Made on a light brown semi-translucent flint that has started to turn an opaque grey through patination. Central and parallel ridge down the dorsal face separates the orthogonal flake scar on the righ with the unidirectional scar on the left side. Some cortex remains on the left dorsal face near the distal end. Blade possibly struck to rejuvenate the core.

Neolithic (Early) to Neolithic (Later) unretouched blade, 4000 to 2351 BC, 47mm long, 10mm wide, 10mm thick and 3.2g in weight. Made of an opaque flint that is light grey probably through patination. The blade is unmodified but its purpose was probably to remove the bottom end of the core to enable working from a new platform. The dorsal face possesses a central and parallel ridge left of which is the remnants of an orthogonal core face and right of which possesses a unidirectional fake scar.

Neoltithic (Early) to Neolithic (Later) unretouched blade, 4000 BC to 2351 BC. 24mm long, 13mm wide, 3mm thick and 1.5g in weight. This is the mid-section of a blade (fragment) made on a semi-translucent flint that has turned nearly wholly light grey and opaque with patination. The dorsal face possesses 2 parallel central ridges that were created by the remaoval of 3 parallel unidirectionally struck blades. Breakages look like they possibly happened during manufacture.

Mesolithic (Early) to Neolithic (Later) notch, 35mm long, 16mm wide, 6mm thick and 3.9g in weight. This piece has been made on a crested blade struck from a unidirectional blade core. The crested blade is broken of which the distal end is missing. The flint is mid grey and opaque through patination and looks as though it was originally a mid caramel brown colour. The notch is positioned along the right lateral edge and has been struck on the ventral face by continuous abrupt retouch.
