Description: | An incomplete struck / knapped flint Group A microlith/blade dating from the early Mesolithic, approximately 9000 BC to 6500 BC. The flint is a mottled honey colour, opaque and with little patination. The microlith is sub-rectangular in plan and triangular in section. The flint is a tertiary flake. The proximal end appears to have been snapped, removing the bulb of percussion. There is very fine short abrupt sub parallel retouch on the distal left edge (and possibly further along this edge) and also on the proximal right edge.
