Description: | A flint probable side scraper. The scraper is a tertiary flake as there is no remaining cortex. Part of the bulb of percussion can be seen on the ventral face of the proximal end. There is clear short, scaled, abrupt retouch on the left and right edges. There are conchoidal ripple marks on the dorsal face showing the removal of flakes. The scraper is grey in colour with some lighter white-grey marks and is opaque. Side scrapers are rare on Mesolithic sites and common on Early Neolithic ones.
