In the book " The History of Meteoritics and Key
Meteorite Collections " at pag.40 its write:

"Wold Cottage is the largest meteorite to have fallen
in the British Isles, and in Europe is second in size
only to the stone of Ensisheim "

The size it is understood for weight or measure? For
all two is not correct seen many other meteorites fall
in Europe go up in weight and size, just for speack of
one take from many, Alfianello, a unique piece of 228
kg. with measure of over 80 cm. from old
documentation, and other some european meteorites.
