Bifacially flaked, though part of the original outer surface of the cobble is preserved. The flaked surfaces, one the whole, have a fresh appearance, though it is interesting to note that loaclised areas of rounding, possibly as a result of scraping, rubbing or polishing are visiible down one of the longer sides.
