What a lovely book. The author's love of the area really shines through. It's full of loads of interesting period anecdotes and facts. A real goldmine of info and stories.
I particularly liked the man who saw a figure "black as coal" and thought it was either a hobgoblin or the devil, but it turned out to be a travelling chimney sweep.
