Description: | Side scraper of local greensand chert with semi abrupt retouching along upper right hand edge, dorsal side. There is a area at lower end near proximal which has had a thinning flake removed and this gives a grip or backing for using the scraper. No cortex remains.The chert is a dense, medium grey colour with cream inclusions and was likely derived from a local beach pebble.Mercer [1981] illustrates a similar example on page 133, Fig.58, No. L132 which is dated to the middle Neolithic.
