Description: | A barbed and tanged flint arrowhead of probable early Bronze Age date. The object measures 23.1mm high by 15mm wide and 3.8mm thick. The main part of the body is triangular in shape, extending to a sharp point at the top and terminating in a barb at one of the bottom corners. The opposite corner has been broken off in antiquity. The tang is sub-rectangular and measures 6.5mm long by 5.3mm wide. Both surfaces of the object are convex and have been formed by pressure flaking. The edges appear to have been deliberately serrated. The surface of the object is heavily weathered. The weight is 1.16g.
