Description: | A translucent brown flint plunging flake of expanding triangular plan. It carries sub-parallel short blade and flake scars on the dorsal surface in the same direction as the removal and nodular cortex on the distal end. The dorsal proximal end has been reworked as a nosed scraper and this has been utilised with abrasion of the edge of one of the facets. Adjacent to this is a boldly worked notch. The sharp left margin has a very intense patch of use gloss with a smaller patch further from that edge. Butler(2005) illustrates a nosed scraper on page 126, fig 50, 10 and a combination tool on page 169, fig 71,5.
