Description: | Oval shaped piece of translucent coloured light to mid grey flint, with some cream inclusions in the material. There is also cortex remaining in the surface which is smooth in texture and consistent with beach material. The dorsal face is uneven in appearance and texture, there appears to be gloss at the medial and distal end of the left margin. The lower part of the left margin appears to have been subject to retouch up to the medial of the edge, consistent with a scraper edge. The distal edge is divided by a prominent V shaped depression in the medial of the edge, this appears to be a natural break rather than manufactured. The ventral face is uneven, the lower half being smooth in appearance and texture, the proximal edge is jagged, a step dividing the face projects from the top left side to the medial of the right margin, there are no obvious indications of retouch on the face. Possible patination in the face. Appears to be a core rejuvenation flake made into a scraper ?
