Description: | A pebble flint core, mottled dark brown to black in colour. Appears to have only one single striking platform, the cortex is rough in texture and consistant with beach material. Several negative scars with some indications of hinged and step terminations on the face. The flint appears flawed in places and may not have produced many blades prior to disposal. There is gloos on the right side, near the striking platform, whcih would imply other use for the core as a scraper, the underside of the striking platform appears to have been retouched, with some gloss also appearing on the right. The base of the core, cortex has been removed with some conchoidal ripples being present.
