A complete mesolithic thumb scraper. Worked from a larger flake on one side with bulb of percussion and striking platform removed. Ripples travel from right to left on the unworked face. It has a curved profile with part of the cortex present on the worked face. Pressure flake have been removed contimuously from its end to its right hand side with possible retouching along the same edge. The flint is a brown grey colour and not very opaque.

A group of 8 flint flakes of Mesolithic date (9000-3450 BC). The lithics are sub-rectangular in plan and plano-convex in section. All of the lithics retain some cortex (mostly on the ventral surfaces aside from no. 1 which retains cortex on the left and right hand edges) and are therefore secondary flakes. The flakes are dark grey in colour. The cortex is grey in colour.
