Description: | A probable flint end scraper of Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. The scraper has been made on a tertiary flake. At the proximal end is the striking platform and below this on the ventral surface is the bulb of percussion. On the dorsal surface there are four main flaking scars and a short length of the distal end appears to have been retouched. Part of the flake has broken, possibly removing further retouch. The light yellowish-brown flint has a low-gloss patina.
