A complete flint retouched blade of uncertain Mesolithic to early Bronze Age date. A short, pointed secondary blade with a small amount of cortex still remaining along the left edge of the dorsal face. It has a narrow butt and prominent bulb of percussion suggesting that it was struck with a hard hammer. There is a small amount of crude, short, low angle retouch along the left edge of the ventral face and a notch to the right of the distal end - the latter may be post-deposition damage.
