Description: | Perhaps a Mesolithic 8300 - 4500 BC worked flint fragment which could be debitage but is heavily worked so it may originally been part of a tool. The flint is good quality black with a few grey speckles possibly from exposure to frost. There are 3 blade scars on the dorsal face and ripples at the proximal end from which it was originally struck which was possibly to create microliths but the bulb of percussion is now missing. The length is 16mm and the thickness is 15mm.
