Description: | A conical-shaped flint core. The core is taken from a natural piece and has a prepared flat striking platform, and three elongated flake scars. There is one, possibly two scars on the striking platform that represent failed attempts to remove flakes (one is shown by the arrow in the images). The flint is a mottled grey-colour. The core is Neolithic or Bronze Age in date, though the style of elongated flakes may suggest that an assignment to the early Bronze Age. The flake scars measure 22mm, 24mm and 18mm in width.
