The ventral face has no clear features. The dorsal face has been thinned by flaking towards a point at the distal end. The dorsal left margin is serrated and there is a small notch on the distal left shoulder. The flint is mottled light and dark brown in colour. It is probably derived from a local beach pebble by the look of its secondary cortex. Mercer (1981) illustrates a similar piece on Page 135 Fig 59 No L152 which he calls a piercer and dates to the Neolithic period.
