Resolved flaking round the edge, fine trimming round part of the lower edge. Patinated white, thinner patination on flake surface. Fresh. Length 3°05 in. (7°7 cm.), width 2°07 in. (5°2 cm.), maximum thickness 0°93 in. (2°4 cm.).

The fresher Clactonian material appears to be contemporary to the Estuarine shingle, which overlies the Cannon Shot gravel and boulder clay, which would seem to be a correlate of the Eastern Glaciation of the Midlands.
