Cwm Mawr Stone Axe Factory Ancient Mine / Quarry View all content for Cwm Mawr Stone Axe Factory

CPAT 'Prehistoric Axe Factory near Hyssington, in Powys: Archaeological Survey and Excavation 2007-8.' There are also more details here. Mmm Axe Factory. And enthusiasts of prehistoric rock carvings may also like the photo of a stone criss-crossed with pecked lines. Also it's interesting to see how the freshly made axes would have been a bright blue-green, not the dull brown the picrite turns after weathering.
