Description: | Flint flake with semi abrupt retouch at proximal which has produced an end scraper. The flake has been truncated with a snap or possible accidental break at the distal end. There is evidence of a thinning where a flake has been removed from the lower left part of the dorsal face. There are signs of trimming on the lower right and lower left margins, dorsal view. There is also evidence of retouch at upper right hand margin, dorsal view.The flint is a light flecked grey colour with cream inclusions and was likely derived from a local beach pebble.Bond [2005] illustrates a similar example on page 141, Fig 5.127, No.11 which is dated to mid to late Neolithic.
