RLN1 - No concentrations of flints were found, however the finds tended to diminish towards the higher ground in the SW of the site. Of the 184 flints recovered, 58 could be described as a tool of some kind including 2 arrowheads and 5 hammer or pecking stones. The 126 flakes and cores, 2/3 of the total, are an interestingly high proportion, and would seem by their wide patination to indicate a sustained level of domestic activity in this area. (1)

A scatter of worked flint has been found on land to the west of the village at Radmanthwaite Farm by the Sherwood Archaeological Group. The flints were found over an area of 13 hectares. The finds consist of flakes and cores of which some of the flakes could be described as implements. Two Neolithic arrowheads were found as well as five hammerstones (2)
