Description: | Four flints of early Bronze Age date.
1: A complete barbed and tanged flint arrowhead. Long narrow form with a long tang. Relatively thick with steepish edge retouch. Unusual pale brown/cream coloured flint Green's (1980) 'Sutton b' type (BAR 75).
2: Fine barbed and tanged flint arrowhead, one barb missing. Realtively large for East Anglia, 42mm in length, with shallow all-over almost ripple-type flaking. The barbs are obliquely cut and the tang is slightly longer. Upatinated medium and grey-brown flint, Green's 'Conggar Hill' type.
3: Fragment of a bifacially worked flake, possibly a projectile, though not of any obvious type. Fine retouch but limited to edges. Unpatinated medium to dark brown flint.
4: A small oval side-scraper on a squat flake with cortex at the distal end, unpatinated white and pale brown flint. | 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
