Description: | Axehead roughout made on a piece of an irregularly shaped, natural flint nodule. This is curving and bears large areas of coarse flaking to produce a trapezoid section. Areas of thick cortex survive with a button-like projection at one point. An attempt to form an axe from this nodule appears to have been abandoned. The flint is opaque with a mottled grey colour. Length 177mm, Width 59mm, Thickness 42mm, Mass 449.1g
