          Description
              Neolithic flints have been recovered by Dr. J. Weyman during field walking north of Dewley Hill, widely scattered in the same field from north to east of the mound, and just extended into the next field to the north. The two best pieces are a hollow-based arrowhead and a knife. The rest are Neolithic-type worked flakes.
