Description: | Large rough blade, Secondary blade with c.40% cortex remaining. Small amount of striking platform at the proximal end. Only one flake had been removed previously and this was probably produced as part of core preparation rather than for use. The flint is pale grey with darker mottling. It is hard to date single pieces precisely and it could be Mesolithic - Iron Age in date but the core preparation and lengh: width ratio suggests Mesolithic or Neolithic. 77.7mm long, 22.5mm wide, 11.6mm thick and 18.38 grams.
