 Activity round the Morecambe Bay region seems to have been less than in the West Cumbrian Coastal Plain, although there is evidence for significant settlement on Walney Island, and at Sizergh, Levens Park and Allithwaite where Beaker burials took place.This southern area of the county also has approximately 85 examples of perforated axe-hammers, rarely found in the rest of the county.These, like the Neolithic stone axes, seem to have been deposited deliberately (with axe finds being more coastal in distribution).
