The arrowhead is widest at the cutting edge with an edge formed from the flaking and has no secondary working. Ripples on the ventral surface indicate that the cutting edge would have been on the side of the flake, thinner side at the distal end. The flint is non-cortical and unpatinated grey-brown.
