Description: | A flint waste flake of probable Late Neolithic to Early Bronze Age date.The flint is a secondary flake, retaining part of the original cortex at the proximal end, where there is a bulb-of-percussion. The flake is roughly semicircular in plan and has a conchoidal fracture. At one point along the edge, there are four parallel flake removal scars, which are probably indicative of retouch. The translucent flint is repatinated in places, particularly on the ventral face.Dimensions: length: 32.6mm; width: 28.1mm; thickness: 7.5mm. Weight: 7.18g.
