A Neolithic handaxe made from a mottled-grey flint. The handaxe has bifacial removals while c.5% cortex remains on the dorsal surface. There is some suggestion that this axe has been polished or smoothed in places, although this may have been caused by water action rather than purposeful grinding / polishing.
