A prehistoric flint scatter was recovered from within colluvial layers during excavation ahead of development at 70 Maison Dieu Road Dover. The assemblage comprises 36 flakes, 1 blade, 3 bladelets, 1 blade-like flake, 2 cores, 1 spurred piece, 1 awl and 5 pieces of burnt unworked flints. The flint is all heavily edge-damaged and residual. The flake debitage may be of mixed date: many of the flakes are of thick, broad, proportions typical of the Later Neolithic or Bronze Age, but the blades and bladelets are more typical of the Neolithic. The two retouched tools - an awl and a spurred piece - are not chronological diagnostic forms and only a broad Neolithic or Bronze Age date can be proposed. The cores are both regularly worked and the single platform blade core may date from the Mesolithic or early Neolithic; the other core is probably Neolithic. (1)
