Description: | Produced on a tertiary flake. The object has a convex dorsal face, with a ridge running down its centre. The proximal end is has been worked to a point, removing most of the striking platform, and the distal end rounded. Perhaps the pointed proximal end was also used as a tool. Sporadic semi-abrupt to low angle, short to long, sub-parallel retouch can be seen along the left edge of the dorsal face. The right edge of the ventral face has low angle, short, subparallel retouch along its extent. The distal end of the dorsal face has been rounded using crossed abrupt to abrupt, long, subparallel retouch. The flint is brown-grey in colour with a shiny patina. The scraper is probably of Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. Length: 32.95mm, Width: 23.14mm, Thickness: 9.18mm, Weight: 7.0g
