Ta :)

This part is called the Marshwwood Vale, mainly sheep/dairy farms.

There is a Manor house in the village of Bettiscombe here that has a skull in it. Legend has it that it's the skull of a slave and that if it's removed from the house, the sound of screaming is heard there :eek:

I've met the gardener there and he reckons its much older than that, and that they made the legend up to cover the fact they robbed it from a bronze age burial mound :cautious:

The Dinnington Docks pub is full of Railway memorabillia and stuff about the light railway preservation society, but there never was a railway or indeed any dockyard :cautious:

All totally made up to catch out tourists :D
