Description: | Waste flake of Mesolithic or Neolithic date, knapped from light blue-grey flint. Previous flakes have been removed from the surface of the flint, and there are some impact ripples along its length. The arrises on the distal surface are discoloured to an orange-red due to the presence of iron in the soil. The proximal end is pointed, however there is no evidence for retouch. The distal end is covered in light brown-grey cortex. The flake is 35.72mm long, 20.05mm wide, 6.34mm thick and weighs 5.37 grams.
