Description: | A flint barbed and tanged arrowhead dating from the Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age (c. 2500-1500 BC). The arrowhead is invasively worked with covering removals on both faces and is a "fancy" type of arrowhead, possibly of Green Low type. It is triangular in shape, with straight mesial edges. The ends of the barbs are both broken, the tang is lentoid in cross-section and broken; it is currently shorter than the barbs. The flint is light grey in colour. The arrowhead measures 34.5mm long, 24.1mm wide, 6.4mm thick and weighs 2.97 grams. Cf. Butler 2005, p165, Fig. 69, No. 1.
