A complete flint piece of Debitage of Mesolithic to Bronze Age date (9000-800 BC). The object is sub-rectangular in plan and Bi-convex in section. The dorsal surface has three predominant negative scars. Both the proximal and distal ends have been abruptly blunted. There is a projecting spur from the proximal left hand edge. The ventral surface is slightly convex and three negative scars. The lithic retains no cortex and is therefore a tertiary flake.
The flint is light grey in colour with dark grey inclusions throughout.
