. The Victoria history of the county of Lancaster;. Natural history. KND OP AKM, ^^ o mmm iESs;^s:ss;S^. Fragment of Cross-head at Winwick, Lancashire. his death in battle with the Mercian Penda ; and applies to this well the account of the Venerable Bede, who mentions the miracles attributed to the earth carried from the place. But Mr. Romilly Allen considers the subject to be the martyrdom of Isaiah : ^ Maserfield is generally located at Oswestry ; ^ and phonetic science does not warrant the identification with Makerfield. At Walton on the HilP the existence of a cross is gleaned from the pedestal alone, which was dug up in the churchyard. It is of three steps carved in a single block, 3 feet square at the base, and is much timeworn. 1 Allen, Christian Symbolism, p. 329. 2 Worsley, Winwick (Lane, and Ches. Antiq.
