There are thirteen in the Grierson Museum, Thornhill, Dumfriesshire. One of the same form as the figure (9 3∕8 inches) was found at Dean,[712] near Bolton, Lancashire, and others at Hopwood and Saddleworth in the same county. One of grit (7 1∕2 inches) was found at Siddington,[713] near Macclesfield. Another (8 inches), found at Kirkoswald, Cumberland, is in the museum at Newcastle, together with a similar specimen from Haydon Bridge; and others have been found at Thirstone, Shilbottle, Barrasford,[714] and Hipsburn,[715] Northumberland; and in Yorkshire.[716] One (10 1∕2 inches) was found at Ehenside Tarn,[717] Cumberland. Others at Rusland, North Lonsdale, and Troutbeck. A long list of stone-hammers, &c., found in Cumberland and Westmorland, has been given by Chancellor R. S. Ferguson, F.S.A.,[718] and a similar list has been compiled for Lancashire and Cheshire.[719] They occur also in more southern districts. I have seen one (8 inches) from the neighbourhood of Glastonbury. Another of the same length was found on Dartmoor, near Burnt Tor. Others (8 1∕2 and 9 inches) from Ashbury and Holsworthy,[720] Devon, are in the Museum of the Plymouth Institute. One was found at Withycombe Raleigh,[721] Devon. A fine specimen (8 inches long), with the sides somewhat hollowed, was found at Tasburgh, Norfolk. Another of greenstone (5 1∕2 inches), and rather curved longitudinally, was found in the same parish. Other specimens from Norfolk are mentioned in the Norwich volume of the Archæological Institute. I have one of serpentine from Chatteris Fen, which has been broken diagonally, and had a fresh edge ground quite away from the middle. The Rev. S. Banks had one of hard sandstone (7 3∕4 inches), found in Cottenham Fen. Its faces are more parallel, so that the edge is more obtuse. I have seen one, found near Stourton (9 1∕2 inches), Somersetshire, straighter at the sides, and having the angles rounded. They occur in Leicestershire.[722] One (7 inches) from the Cemetery at Leicester, and one (9 1∕2 inches) from Barrow-on-Soar, are recorded. An axe of the same kind, but smaller, found near Imola, has been engraved by Gastaldi.[723] Perhaps the more common variety, in Cumberland, is that which is somewhat flattened at the butt, like Fig. 131, and which is, more |201| properly speaking, an axe-hammer. This specimen was found near Bed Dial, Wigton, Cumberland, and is in my own collection. The two sides are nearly flat and parallel, and the edge appears to have been re-sharpened since the axe-head was first formed, as it is ground away to a shoulder a little below where it is perforated. It is formed of an igneous rock. A very symmetrical example, 8 1∕2 inches long, with the sides nearly flat, from Aikbrae, Culter, Lanarkshire, is engraved in the _Journal of the Archæological Association_.[724] [Illustration: Fig. 131.—Wigton. 1∕2]
