The same retouch is evident at the left margin close to the proximal end. The proximal end itself exhibits continuous retouch and again is of low angle and is of edge extent. A notch is present approximately midway along the right margin however this may be a result of later damage. Gloss is evident in the central area of the dorsal face and at the proximal end possibly indicating use wear.This flint is translucent brown in colour, sub-rectangular in plan and sub triangular in section.Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar example on p131, Fig 57, L116 which dates to the Neolithic.
