Description: | A natural frost shattered flint pebble, which ahas been worked to form a pointer/borer at the tip. the natural flint seems to have been knapped and retouched without the care taken to produce an entire tool, and it is therefore probable that the tool was produced as a response to a sudden need for a borer. Probable post-glacial or Mesolithic date. Identified by Bill Boismeyer of Northamptonshire Archaeology.
