Description: | Part of a stone (slate) pencil probably dating form the 19th century. This would have been used for writing on slates. It is a circular sectioned rod, broken at one end and tapering to a point at the other. The break reveals the laminated structure of the slate. The pointed end is square in section and irregular, perhaps having been broken at some point. Compare NLM-5E9762 and NLM-71B667.
