It has a prominent bulb of percussion on the left-hand side, before becoming concave towards the centre. The dorsal face has seven large flaking scars running from one end to the other. The right-hand side has abrupt, short to long, scaled removals allowing it to be used as a scraper. Whilst the left-hand side has a borer formed from two flaking scars, with a small amount of further retouch in a few places. The colour of the flint ranges from dark grey-brown to lighter, mottled grey.
