Description: | HAMPTON, NEW HAMPSHIRE, U.S.A. Long stone variant of the Guernsey and Rugen form. The killick of the "wicker ship of the Wild Irish" in Bib. Pepys MS. 2934, fol. 41, is of similar design.
Scale: Unknown. A model of a killick from Hampton, New Hampshire U.S.A. consisting of two flat pieces of wood tapering to a point at their ends which have been notched to form a flat cross shape. There is a single stone roughly rectangular in shape. This is held in place by four wooden sticks coming up through the wooden cross which are secured by rope around the stone at the top, middle and bottom as well as at the top of the rods to form a neck.
Possibly made by Robert Morton Nance.
