Description: | The ventral face has a bulb, but any ripples have been abraded. The distal tip is snapped in a concave fashion. The dorsal face has flake removals to either side of a medial ridge and both margins are finely serrated.The flint is light to dark grey in colour. It is probably derived from a local beach pebble but this is difficult to confirm with only tertiary cortex.Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar piece on Page 127 Fig 55 No L93 which he calls an edge trimmed flake and dates to the Neolithic period.
