Full Description
Numerous worked flints found in the area over a number of years. These include abundant single, double and triple platform cores, blades, scrapers, saws, perforators, points, knives and flakes. Post ploughing field walking in 1990 prior to tree planting revealed more flints of a similar nature. They were concentrated notably on the top of the ridge. A visit in spring of 1991 showed that land removal had destroyed the northernmost area of flint concentrations. Many of the flints found by a private collector may have been burnt in a house fire at Ladymire, Ellon. Other flints are in private hands as well as museum and GRC.
