Axes found at Ulgham and Trow Rock are discussed. The faceted axe is of Meldreth type, for which three variant body shapes are defined. The other two are Yorkshire 3-ribbed axes, here mapped fully and discussed as hoard occurrences and in relation to N English plain (Everthorpe) axes. Both types, faceted and 3-ribbed, belong to final BA?Montelius V/Ha B3, 8th century BC, possibly surviving into 6th. Most examples are too small and light for conventional axes.
