A complete flint scraper of Neolithic to early Bronze Age date. A roughly D-shaped flattened tertiary flake. Short, scaled, abrupt retouch along the curved distal edge and right edge of the dorsal face. A small amount of further short, scaled, low angle retouch along the right edge of the ventral face has removed the cortex here suggesting that it took place at a stage much later than the initial maufacture. Patchy medium to heavy white patination and orange staining in places on both faces. Length: 39.90mm, width: 35.01mm, thickness: 6.02mm, weight: 18.30g
