A large fragment of whetstone, which is probably medieval in date. The stone from which the whetstone has been carved is probably ‘Schist’ a form of Norwegian ragstone. The stone has been chipped and ground into the whetstone shape and has large chamfered edges. Both ends are badly broken; one break looks a lot fresher than the other much more worn down break. The chamfered edges are still very obvious. Weight: 153g.
