Three of the flakes show signs of burning, and are now a white colour with multiple darker grey crazed lines tracking across the surface. Two flakes are now a buff grey colour with small areas of orange iron staining.

Flake 2- Triangular in form, triangular in cross section. Burnt to a light grey colour with darker grey lines erratically placed across the surface. Central oval area of darker grey on the ventral face. Tertiary flake. 13.1mm length, 9.4mm width, 1.9mm thickness, weight 0.18g.

Flake 3- Irregular sub-oval in form, flattened in cross section. Secondary flake, with retained cortex burnt to an almost white shade. Ventral face now a light grey colour with small areas of a lighter grey colour. 16.8mm length, 10.9mm width, 3.7mm thickness, weight 0.76g.

Flake 4- Triangular in form with a rectilinear extension at the distal end. Scalene triangle in cross section. Secondary flake with cortex retained around the proximal end.
