Notes about this historic site

1 A number of flints from fieldwork in Kenilworth.
2 There are two from this grid reference. The smaller is a waste flake and the larger a small blade (?) which shows traces of retouch or wear on several edges. Edge of flake scars rounded suggesting that the flint had been rolled in the bed of a stream. Probably Neolithic/Bronze Age. The flints were returned to the finder.
4 May be the same material, or additional finds from the same location.
5 Dating extended to include the Mesolithic; now Meso/Bronze Age, previously Neolithic/Bronze Age.
