A Jadeite Axe from Staines Moor

DAVID FIELD and ALAN WOOLLEY

The butt portion of an extremely fine jadeite axe was discovered in December 1981 during fieldwalking at Hithermoor Pit, adjacent to the northern boundary of Staines Moor, Stanwell (TQ 033 743). It had evidently been thrown up with spoil by earth moving machinery during the digging of a drainage ditch. It is thought that this ditch disturbed a medieval feature since pottery of that period also came from the spoil heap, and while it is possible that the axe came from this context (stone axes are commonly found incorporated into later features) it is more probable that there was no connection.
