Abstract:
Discusses an object reportedly found at the site in 1872 and which, although subsequently lost, has been relocated and is now held in the Tolson Memorial Museum, Huddersfield. Consideration of the find's provenance includes an account of the Robin Hood fable associated with the Wainstalls Penny Stone and the belief that it was once at the centre of a stone circle (unproven by excavations in 1964). A description of the axe-hammer highlights the difficulty of dating such objects and considers its possible function.
