Extract

These formea 16% of tne total artifact assemblage, a very much smaller proportion than in the other valleys (48% Kiln Comte; 55% Itford Bottom). This in itself suggests either less activity hereabouts in the lithic periods or that less evidence has survived. Certainly what was found amounted to a rather unprepossessing collection including only 58 tools, tne majority of these not recognisable tool types and classified as ‘other retouched pieces’. The main recognisable tool types were simple scrapers which would not be out of place in Neolithic to Bronze Age contexts. The generally crude nature of the flint-work and the paucity of tool types, other than scrapers, might imply that much of this material belongs to the latter part of this range.
