Description: | A flint blade of probable Late Mesolithic to early Neolithic date.The blade is roughly parallel-sided and of triangular section. At the proximal end of the ventral surface is a small bulb scar below a portion of the flat core platform. A short length of one of the long sides has been retouched to create a jagged cutting edge. The concave distal end would also appear to have been deliberately created. The flint is lightly patinated and is mottled, with dark grey and white patches. The tool measures 35.4mm long, 14.1mm wide and 4.3mm thick. The weight is 2.3g.
