Findspot - Neolithic flint axe

1 A fine polished celt of white veined flint was picked up many years ago in a field in the above place, by the Rev Frederick Leigh Colville, and presented to Bloxam.
2 A flint axe, ground all over so that the marks of chipping are obliterated. It is 14 cm long, 5.4 cm broad and 3.2 cm thick. It is preserved in Rugby Museum.
3 Its clumsy proportions and imperfect grinding are more suggestive of Neolithic than Bronze Age date.
4 Found about 5 km from the Rollright Stones. Polished stone axe type 4/cf.
5 Transferred from Rugby to Warwick Museum in 1950.
