A large crude Neolithic lithic implement, possible a rough out for a scraper.  The flint is roughly oval in overall shape, but has been irregularly shaped, by the knapping process. It has been formed from a light greyish-brown flint. The bulb of percussion and striking platform both survive and the ripples of percussion are evident. The retouch is shallow and crude.

A flint scraper. This example is manufactured from the naturally occuring flint deposits on the Yorkshire Wolds. The flint is of an inferior quality and is not utilised that often in the manufacture of lithic implements. This example has a white patina and a section of the cutting edge has been removed recently, no doubt by the plough.
