Full Description
Lithic scatter recorded by fieldwalking in February 2023 by the Mesolithic Deeside Project. A total of 104 flint lithics were recovered, as well as one rhyolite core, and two possible worked quartz blades. The predominance of flakes, lack of blades and type of scraper suggests Neolithic activity in the field. See NO79NE0053 for rectilinear enclosure in the southern part of the field.
