| Description | Mesolithic type flakes and chippings, including part of an acute triangular pygmy blade, found over small area west of the disused quarry on the brow of the Deer Park. Also on the summit of the Deer Park is a Neolithic working site comprising cores, unfinished scrapers and flakes. Finds made by E.T. Cowling c.1940.
Present whereabouts unknown (some of Cowling's collection held by Otley Museum). Available documentation suggests actual sites as follows:
1. SE 226 442 flint site on brow of hill which produced 240 flints including 4 microliths, 4 gravers and 2 cores. Grid ref. uncertain.
2. SE 225 445 Mesolithic workshop site in Deer Park, including cores, flakes and unfinished scrapers. Apparently distinct from 1. Grid ref. inadequate (quoted as centre of Deer Park). |
