Description: | A retouched flint flake of probable Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. The tertiary flake appears to have broken in two places, removing the striking platform and pulb of percussion at one end and the distal end at the other. There are slight ripples on the central surface. On the dorsal surface there are two main flaking scars one side has been retouched, possibly with the intention of making a rudimentary transverse arrowhead. The slightly mottled mid greyish-brown flint has a mid-gloss patina.
