Full Description
1953.
Axe hammer found.
Information from (S1), but is this a confusion with NHER 14703, flint axe in SEM?
E. Rose (NAU) 20 August 1980.
'A stone axe hammer with hour glass perforation was found just north of Church Farm House, and now in York Cottage Museum'.
(N.B. suggests, from this description, that it is not a confusion with polished flint axe NHER 14703).
See (S2).
R.J. Rickett (NAU) 6 February 1990.
