Description: | Multi platform core with opposing platforms. Light grey pebble flint. Rectangular in plan. Both blade and flake removals. Removals have ended in stepped, hinged and feathered fracturing. There is platform preparation on both platforms edges. Cortex remains on one face, the reverse to worked face. The core is highly patinated and has iron staining running down some of the ridges of the core. The piece tapers in at one platform.Bond (2004) illustrates a similar example on page 120, Fig 5.104, No 72 which dates to the Later Mesolithic/ Early Neolithic.
