    There are quite a few stones from Britan

    Tam o Shanter
    Water of Ayre
    Llyn Idwall
    Charnley Forest
    Dragon's Tongue

    One other that the name escpaes my brain right now Green something or other
    and probably more I don't know

    Also of note

    "Idwall, or Welsh Oil stone, 'is generally harder, but in other respects differs but little as a whetstone from the Charley Forest; but in consequence of its being more expensive is in less general use." (Knight, R, 1836, Hone-stones)
