The Lie algebra analogue to the Schur multiplier has been investigated in a number of recent articles. We consider the multipliers of Lie algebras of maximal class, classifying these algebras with a certain additional property. The classification leads to a conjecture about a bound on the dimension of the multiplier for each of these algebras and also for p-groups of maximal class. The conjectures are then shown to hold.
