Description: | Proximal end of a knapped flint secondary flake or large blade with a probably deliberate notch in one side, probably Neolithic in date, possibly late Mesolithic. The bulb of percussion survives at the proximal end and regular parallel arises on the dorsal face suggest it was removed from a core worked in one direction with parallel removals. There is a small area (c.10%) of cortex on the dorsal face down the left edge. There is a deep notch half way along the left edge which may be deliberate. Dark grey flint with paler mottling. 22.9mm long by 28.4mm wide by 4.9mm thick, 2.89 grams.
