Description: | Description by Nicholas Thomas:This is an irregular flake..The dorsal face has battered edges all round, fine retouch along the right margin towards the distal endThe ventral face has a prominent butt and bulbal scar, otherwise the face is clear. There is fine retouch at the distal end of the left margin.The flint is clear deep grey in colour. It is probably derived from a local beach pebble but this is uncertain with only tertiary cortex.Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar piece on Page 129 Fig 56 Nos L104 which he calls an edge trimmed flake and dates to the Neolithic.
