Description: | Flint flake, sub-rectangular in plan, profile and section. On the dorsal face, there is possibly backing created by nibbled retouch at the distal end. The right margin is sharp (with shallow retouch on the left margin of the ventral face). It is snapped and blunted at the proximal end and along the left margin. The flint is dark grey. There is secondary cortex. It is likely to have derived from a local beach pebble.Mercer (1981) shows a similar example, described as an edge-trimmed flake, on page 143, Figure 63, Number L205.
