‘The presence of worked flint, including a scraper of Bronze Age date, is not considered to be of great significance in an area of very high utilisation during the prehistoric period and where previous survey locally has shown densities of lithic debris and artefacts to exceed 1,000 pieces per hectare on a 20% surface collection sample.’
