Description: | There are 12 flint flakes. They have all been knapped from a mottled grey and brown coloured flint. As the flint has been knapped, and the shape of the flakes, it suggests they are of a Prehistoric date, most likely to be Neolithic to Early Bronze Age periods, but possibly the Mesolithic period.
Two flakes have a well developed creamy coloured patina, whereas the other flakes still the original colour. Three of the flakes have cortex remaining. The flakes weigh 21.11g. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | -8300
