Interesting re: flints. I saw some field clearance nuggets (or whatever the correct name for a lump of flint is) on the way to Hunters Burgh, which were certainly large enough for handaxes, is that small?

Can you tell I'm no flint expert? ;-)

Re the cursus & related platform in the LB, I wondered if it was related to the mines & the transport of flint. What would create those lines though is a different matter, some sort of specially created wheeled cart thing?

I wouldn't call those lumps small, if I understand what you mean correctly :-)

As for wheeled transport..............very unlikey I'd say. No record of ANY wheeled transport in this country at that time, and in any case, the two tracks converge towards the top of the hill.
