Description: | Large flint core, cylindrical and used for the production of broad flakes. Multiple striking platforms at at varied angles to each other. Some platform preparation has taken place. A small area area of original cortex survives suggesting that mined flint had been used. The core, while recorticated, has the blotchy appearance suggestive of the flint typical of this site. The form of this core and the nature of its products suggest that it is Early Neolithic date. Length 60mm, Width 53mm, Thickness 42mm, Mass 113.7g
