Length: 21.72mm, Width: 19.76mm, Thickness: 6.99mm, Weight: 2.52gCompletely recoticated apart from presumably post-deposition damage around the edges that has revealed a light brown flint inside. Soft hammer struck.4. Length: 13.96mm, Width: 10.91mm, Thickness: 2.24mm, Weight: 0.32gSmall flake. Mid grey flint with a thick milky patina.
