Description: | The broken side of a larger circular or oval scraper that may have been a side or side and end (horseshoe-shaped) scraper. Probably of later Neolithic or Early Bronze Age date. The scraper has a relatively flat base and top. The base has evidence of previous shallow invasive removals. Across one side is a straight old break leaving it roughly semi-circular in plan. Around the rounded edges is long semi-abrupt to abrupt scalar retouch with a large chip to one end of the edge. The flint varies from dark grey with paler mottling at one end to pale grey at the other. It is 34.9mm long by 22.4mm wide by 9.7mm thick and weighs 8.62 grams.
