Description: | A flint flake assemblage with a large number of squat and hinge-fractured flakes, though they are mainly relatively thin and well made. A date early in the Bronze Age is likely though the amount of hinge fractures may also suggest a date early in the traditional middle Bronze Age.
1: A snapped flake with possible slight patination with slight edge retouch, including notch.
2-4: Flakes, 1 snapped, with limited edge retouch.
5-9: 5 snapped flakes.
10-13: 4 squat flakes one with limited edge retouch.
14-20: 7 flakes with hinge-fractures, 3 snapped, 3 squat.
21-25: 5 flakes, 4 with nothces, with hinge fractures and limited edge retouch, 4 with notches, mainly thin.
26: long irregular flake with roughly triangular cross-section, possibly part of a core.
27: long snapped flake or blade similar to above, re-utilisation of earlier patinated piece. | 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: | -2150
