A complete Bronze Age flint barbed and tanged arrowhead, dating to 2500-1500 BC. It is possible that this is an unfinished flake. The arrowhead is made from a tertiary flake of brown flint with a slight gloss patina. Both faces have invasive pressure flaking, though one edge appears unfinished, it is uncertain as to whether one of the barbs is incomplete.
