Description: | Prehistoric adze knapped from mid grey flint. Flakes have been removed from all surfaces leaving a small amount of natural cortex along one ridge. The adze has a triangular cross section, and there are semi-abrupt removals along one edge, which is heavily worn. Adze were produced in the Mesolithic through to the Neolithic, and it is difficult to determine which period this example dates from. 124.3mm long, 50.52mm wide, 43.2mm thick.
