A cluster of Later Stone Age artefacts, about 30m in diameter, which includes several formal tools (adzes, end scrapers, end scrapers with adze-like retouch and circular scrapers) as well as trimmed flakes, all made from hornfels. Some artefacts have fragments of a red cortex. A similar patina completely covers other rolled artefacts found scattered across the flats. In addition to hornfels, a few of these scattered artefacts were made from quartzite; they all appear to date to the Middle Stone Age.
