About the Roman Road and some other history of the village that is down from our place about half a mile (Hoddlesten, where I took my spill). When discussing my obsession with the Roman Road, I stated how fantastic the road system was that the Romans built and said that is probably where the saying, "All roads lead to Rome," came from. Elder Blain said, "I can assure you that all roads in England could not have lead to Rome because of the English Channel." Now, we see here the Roman road that runs above our place linked Manchester and Ribchester. There sure are a lot of "chesters" in England. I just mention that to divert your attention from the fact I didn't think about the water . . . I told you I keep forgetting we're on an island! |
