Description: | Light grey piece of flint, with around 40% cortex remaining on its surface. The cortex is smooth in texture and appears to have originated from a local beach. The cortex is about 2mm in thickness. The dorsal face is smooth in appearance and to the touch with the left margin exhibiting the cortex on the piece, the proximal edge terminates in a point and angles up toward the right margin which exhibits the retouch on this piece. The retouch covers the full length of the right margin and appears to have produced a scraper type edge. The distal edge appears flat on the surface but is actually uneven as it touches on the ventral face. The ventral face is smooth to the touch but uneven in appearance., no indication of any retouch on the surface.
