Firle Corn

Firle Corn in Firle, East Sussex is a nearly lost hill figure whose existence can be seen by infrared photography. It looks like a small ear of corn found high up on the north east slope of Firle Beacon, but what it actually depicts is still undetermined. There is a legend suggesting that a giant called Gill was once cut on this same hill and that he was considered an adversary of the Long Man of Wilmington not far away.〔(Firle Corn )〕 According to one story, the giant on Firle Beacon threw his hammer at the Wilmington giant and killed him, and that the figure on the hillside marks the place where his body fell.〔(Scraps of Folklore Collected by John Philipps Emslie, C. S. Burne, ''Folklore'', Vol. 26, No. 2. (Jun. 30, 1915), pp. 153–170. )〕 If so, the Firle Corn might be an example of gigantotomy.
