A single serated flint knife typologically assigned the Late Mesolithic - Early Neolithic period, found in association with 26 other struck flints in a sandy silt layer overlying the natural chalk. The majority of flints date to the Mid-Late Bronze Age (TQ 67 SW 373). The flints were in a generally poor condition, with no suggestion of discrete industries. The condition of the flints suggests that they had been produced over a long period of time and had become mixed together, possibly as a result of colluvial action. No relationship has been assumed between these finds and later Iron Age-Roman activity on the site. [1]
