Description: | Triangular shaped piece of light grey coloured flint. The dorsal face exhibits several negative scars running proximal to distal indicating possible core face. There does appear to be some traces of gloss on the dorsal surface, specifically on the edge of the right side. The proximal edge is irregular and abraded, with the right margin convex in plan, a blade type edge on its upper area, but no positive retouch along the edge. The distal edge is rounded in appearance with a broken edge on the right side, edges remain sharp implying recent damage. The left margin appears uneven and abraded in places, appears to have been damaged with a gouge removed from the medial. The ventral face is smooth in texture but undulating in appearance, a bulb of percussion remains near the proximal edge. Possible retouch along the right margin lower area, stopping just above the medial. Conchoidal ripples are present throughout the face with stepping occurring above the medial, this appears to be a core rejuvenation flake reused.
