Description: | Flint thumbnail scraper on a flake, sub-circular in plan, plano-convex in profile and section. The dorsal face has primary cortex but the lower section retains its cortex. Where the cortex has been removed (this appears to be the part leading to the distal end) there is invasive retouch. The flint is grey with a large area of patination. It is likely to have derived from a local beach pebble.It accords closely to what Bond (2004) classifies as a Type 7 scraper (page 126, Table 125, Figure 5.113). He also shows a similar scraper on page 132, Figure 5.118, Number F5.
