Description: | An incomplete retouched flint flake of probable Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. The flake is secondary (with a small area of cortex remaining at the distal end). At the proximal end is the striking platform and below this on the ventral surface is the bulb of percussion and a bulbar scar. Ripples radiate down the ventral surface and there are three main flaking scars on the dorsal surface. Part of one lateral edge has been retouched. The dark brownish-grey flint has a mid-gloss patina.
