Description: | A thick broken flake of translucent dark grey flint with opaque mid grey inclusions. the proximal end has been removed by a concave truncation. This break facet is adjacent to a remnant of nodular cortex. The rest of the convex margin is boldy flaked with futher bruising to a flat rough edge. There is a sharper notch at the distal end. The tool has suffered harsh duties; perhaps as a hammer-stone or strike-a-light or scraper on a hard surface. Butler(2005) illustrates a side scraper on page 184, fig 75, 5.
