9. I think we have found him.
10. Here he is cast into a neolithic burial mound in 1327, he was a highwayman who was caught and decapitated, the inscription was put on the stone in the 60's. Follow the link to read the very interesting story, and realise it wasn't just witches up Pendle Hill.
By the time we were back at the car we were wet through to the knickers.
