Full description

Before 1985. Found in garden of 19 Market Lane by [1].
Prehistoric flint flake, probably Neolithic or Bronze Age. There is no striking platform as this appears to have been chipped away by secondary working at this pointed end, but the flake is somewhat worn and it is difficult to
distinguish between prehistoric retouch and modern damage. It is lightly patinated with some streaks of iron staining. Information from R. Rickett (NAU).
Identified by J. J. Wymer (NAU). NCM.
