No. 6. No. 9 is of chert, derived from the upper green-sand, a 
very tough material, seldom used for implements. No. 14 is a 
fine example of the oval class. 
The first implement from the gravel at Milford Hill was found 
by Dr. Blackmore on April 27, 1864. 
A flint implement, however, was obtained from the drift of 
Salisbury about twenty years since ; it is labelled ' Salisbury, 
1 846 ; ' but no exact record of the circumstances under which it 
was discovered has been preserved. It was given to the late Dr. 
Woodward, of the British Museum, who put it aside, as it had 
little reference to his own special studies. This specimen is 
now in the collection of Mr. Prestwich, F.G.S. ; it was lent by him 
to Mr. Cunnington, F.G.S. , who exhibited it at the Salisbury 
meeting of the Wiltshire Archaeological and Natural History 
Society, September, 1865. It does not, either in type or condi- 
tion, resemble the implements since found in the neighbourhood 
of Salisbury. 
A 18. 
Nos. I to 14, and No. 25, are from the gravel capping the 
hill which divides the Avon and the Wiley valleys, above 
Bemerton, between Salisbury and Wilton. No. 3 is a remarkably 
small implement. No. 25 is a scraper of the type more abundant 
during the Neolithic than the Palaeolithic period. In Case B 10, 
No. 27 is another example of this type from Britford, near 
Salisbury. 
The discovery of flint implements in the gravel at Bemerton 
was made by Dr. Blackmore, September 14, 1863. 
Nos. 15 and 16 are from the brick-earth {loess) at Fisherton 
Anger, near Salisbury; No. 16 is a good example of the heart- 
shaped type ; it was found beneath remains of the mammoth, 
July 8, 1864. No. 17 is from the drift at South Newton, about 
five miles above Salisbury, in the Wiley valley ; it is the only 
specimen hitherto obtained from this locality, and was found 
in May, 1868, by Mr. James Sidford, who has presented it to 
the collection. No. 18 is from the drift at Lake, about six 
miles above Salisbury, in the Avon valley. The discovery of 
implements at Lake vvas made by Mr. Tiffin, jun., of Salisbury, 
Oct. 13th, 1865. Nos. 19, 20, 21, and 22 are from the drift- 
gravel at Ashford (the new railway station), near Fordingbridge, 
Hants. Implements were first obtained from this locality by 
Mr. Toomer, of Salisbury, April loth, 1866; these and som.e 
other specimens subsequently found by him have been presented 
to the collection.
