The focus of earlier Neolithic activity was identified within the northern half of the site comprising a cluster of shallow pits and linear features yielding worked flint and pottery assemblages. Mesolithic flint tools including numerous blades were present in association with Neolithic tools and ceramics suggesting a possible transitional site although the range of material is typical of a temporary camp rather than a settlement. The Neolithic palaeoenvironmental samples contained a typical mixture of domestic and wild food species. Other details: Fig 1.
