Description: | Piece of mid brown coloured flint with over 80% cortex on the dorsal face. The cortex is smooth in texture and appears to have originated from a beach. The distal edge has been subject to abrupt retouch along its full length, with the retouch continuing along the right margin until the medial where it terminates in a concave depression on the side of the piece. The left margin may have been subject to retouch above the medial but this is not certain. The proximal edge appears to be a blunt point. The ventral face is relatively smooth in appearance with a section removed from the face near the distal end of the face. There are no obvious signs of retouch on this face. This appears to be a core preparation flake converted into an end and side scraper.
