Description: | Flint flake or chip with a snapped edge; it may have been a much longer blade before being snapped or broken. The edge opposite the break has been lightly trimmed so it is an edge trimmed flake - probably not used as a scraper. No cortex remains.The flint is a light creamy colour and was likely derived from a local beach pebble.Mercer [1981] illustrates a similar example on page 129, Fig 56, No.L101 which is dated to the Neolithic.
