Description: | A Neolithic stone axe which is 58.8mm long, 47mm wide and 18.2mm thick. It is made from a fine grained smooth stone which is brown on the surface but cream coloured where it is damaged. The butt of the axe is missing and the edges are damaged. In section it is a rounded oval shape and in plan it tapers from the curved cutting edge towards the butt. There are very narrow straight facets along the sides. This axe was probably made by grinding the stone and it probably fits into Manby's class B. It weighs 65.09g.
