Full Description
Lithic scatter recorded by fieldwalking carried out in January 2018 and March 2019 as part of the Mesolithic Deeside project, this field one of three walked (see also NO59NE0133, NO59NE0132). A total of 278 pieces were recovered, distributed across the field, including blades, cores, flakes.

Across the three fields chronologically specific pieces are lacking, but the assemblages suggest activity predominantly in the Neolithic with possibly some Mesolithic elements.
