Description: | The core is single platform with abaded preparation, leaving small flake scars removing the ridges at the proximal ends of the produced bladelets and flakes.These have been removed from half way around the platform and some have ended in step fractures. The flint cortex is intermediate between nodular and pebble and this suggests that the raw material was obtained from an upper beach near to its' source. The flint is grey in colour with cream inclusions but with incipient blue/cream patina. Butler,2005 shows a similar example on p.85, fig.30,5.
