Description: | The ventral face has a bulb and ripples and retouch to the left margin. The dorsal face has a flattened medial ridge at the distal half. There is pressure flaking towards it from the left margin which has abrupt retouch. The right margin is denticulated with all the retouch from the ventral face. The distal tip has cortex. The proximal end has been retouched.The flint is clerical grey in colour with light grey specks. It is probably derived from a local beach pebble by the look of its secondary cortex.Butler (2005) illustrates a similar piece on Page 131 Fig 55 No 3 which he calls a denticulate and dates to the late Neolithic to early Bronze Age period.
