The ventral surface is smooth retaining the original striking platform with bulbar scar. The dorsal surface displays multiple flake scars of varying sizes and angles. The flint is a mid-brown colour with lighter inclusions and small patches of remaining cortex. The implement is 59.1mm long, 27.8mm wide, 13.3mm thick and weighs 14.4g.
