Description: | Group of three flint scrapers, all unimarginally worked on the distal end of the dorsal face.The flint is a mottled light to dark grey colour, with some patches of cortex remaining, and was probably made from the local beach pebbles.The length to breadth ratios of scrapers are generally 1:1, but the largest scraper, represented in the dimensions below, has a ratio of 4:3.Bond (2004) illustrates similar types on page 126, Fig.5.113, Riley Types 3-6, which are dated to the Later Neolithic, and similar examples on page 141, Fig.5.127, Nos.6, 8 & 10, which are dated to the Later Neolithic.
