Description: | The sharpened tip is at the distal end. it has been prepared by long flake removals from the fractured base.The flint is light grey in colour. It is probably derived from a local beach pebble by the look of its secondary cortex.Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar piece on Page 137 Fig 60 No L164 which he calls a piercer and dates to the Neolithic.
