Description: | A lithic blade (or possible waste flint flake) of Mesolithic to Neolithic date. The length of this artefact is more than twice the width and with the sides more or less straight, if not parallel. The section is roughly D-shaped with shallow steps on the dorsal surface. The bulb of percussion and striking platform both survive, along with ripples of percussion, and there is some evidence of basic retouch along the length of the blade. The flint is a light greyish-white colour with some lighter flaws.
