Full description
According to (S1) the Southwold Museum holds several Palaeolithic objects from Toft Monk, described as comprising an "ovate and flint flakes". This information apparently came from a "...note in file for St Catherine's Thorpe". It is not clear to which file this is refering.
These finds are also noted on (S2) and in (S3), (S4) and (S5), although in all cases this is simply a reference to this HER record.
