Description: | A large retouched flake of probable later-prehistoric date. The flake has been struck from a core of mottled grey flint, with some (under 10%) cortex remaining on the distal end. The platform and bulb are retained. There is some sporadic and uneven soft-hammer retouching one both laterals, however it is not particually consistant. There are at least three flake removals struck from the outside edge that have patinated, and later damage. Water (freezing) damage is also visible. This retouched flake probably dates to the later Neolithich or Bronze Age.
