After 4 hours of seraching what seemed an empty void field i found vairous coke cans and bottle tops and a 10p not the most exoitc finds but while i was digging up one of these coke cans i came across this not i know from preivous readings on sites that there was some neolithic and paleolithic activity around where i live just wonderd if this was an arrow head of some sorts or just rubbish.

Looks like a bit of worked flint to me, but I'm no expert.
Have you got a clearer photo so we could see the edges a little better?

Would love to see a clearer picture please and maybe a scale but as it stands I would say an end scraper or a combination tool both from the late Neolithic Early Bronze age period. ( about 4000 years old ). A lovely find.
