Description: | A Neolithic axe made from a thick blade of grey flint with deep ochre patination. The distal end has been worked into a blade and has been polished on both sides. There is secondary working on part of the blade. The axe is D-shaped in section. Recent damage has removed a 33mm flake from the side of the blade.It is unusual for an axe to be made from a thick blade rather than from a core.
