Find Spot record MDR2844 - Flint implements, Grange Mill Quarry, Ible

Numerous flint artefacts found at Grange Mill quarry (SK 244576) have been deposited in Sheffield City Museum by Mr B Bennett. When the Tissington Trail was created, material for the southern section of the trail was imported from the quarry. An examination of the full length of the trail in 1969 revealed numerous artefacts, including 12 flint flakes from the southern section, seven of which had secondary retouch. These suggest the presence of a Neolithic site at or close to the Grange Mill quarry.
