Only in England?

Used NOW in England?

Will have to ask Derek tomorrow.   Ggggrrrrrr............. I get angry with myself if I don't solve puzzles quickly and by myself!!!

A counter weight?   But for what?

Oh well.  Happy 4th July to you.  Just turned midnight here.

If no one solves the puzzle before we wake up, I'll show Derek the pic.

To drown witches cats?  Tie a rope around it's neck then attach it to the rings on the sides?  Definitely a brick that looks like it's been under water.  Only on special occasions... hmmmm,  something to do with Guy Fawkes day perhaps?

It's called The Stone Of Scone or The Stone Of Destiny.

It is placed beneath the coronation chair during a coronation.

Westminster Abbey

Stone of Scone in the Coronation Chair at Westminster Abbey, 1855

In 1296, the stone was captured by Edward I as spoils of war and taken to Westminster Abbey, where it was fitted into a wooden chair—known as King Edward's Chair—on which most subsequent English sovereigns have been crowned. Edward I sought to claim his status as the "Lord Paramount" of Scotland, with the right to oversee its King.
