Description: | A Mesolithic broken flint bladelet. The flint has very fine retouch along one edge, applied from the ventral surface using pressure flaking. Consistency in the patina of the flint at the break suggests that this break is ancient, although whether this was an accident or deliberate is uncertain. The flint is triangular in profile with a ridge running down the centre of the dorsal face. It is of a pale grey to white in colour. It measures 11.41 mm in length, 11.08 mm wide and is 2.78 mm thick. It weighs 0.5 grams.
