Description: | Flint flake, near-lozenge shaped in plan, sub-triangular in profile. On the dorsal face, the left margin is sharp but not retouched. There is a sharp distal tip. The upper right margin is sharp and uneven. On the upper right margin, it is sharp and uneven. A patch of cortex on the lower left margin of the ventral face provides backing. The upper left margin on the ventral face shows possible wear. The flint is pale grey with white mottles and patches of lighter colouring resulting from incipient patination.Mercer (1981) shows a similar example, described as an edge-trimmed flake, on page 131, Figure 57, Number L112.
