Full Description
{1} Overlying the natural in trench 2 was a layer of alluvium, out of which was recovered a small flint flake.
A single flint was recovered from alluvial layer 203 and is therefore residual. It is a fine secondary flake, yellow/brown in colour, with cortex present on the distal end. Crude retouch on one margin suggests use as an expedient scraper.
