Another excellent vid ! Thank you Richard, Julia & Robert. Sting Spider says the story of the cockatrice & the dragon sounds like his mother-in law. Every time she stared at him he turned to stone !
Julia said someone would say, so.... flowers included heather and bellis and they were on an Easter sepulchre. Lovely video. Robert brilliant at telling stories, watch out Richard 😉
We saw another Easter sepulchre in St Mary's church, Wreay, Carlisle... Video coming soon, probably the latter end of next week or beginning of the week after.
Well done great video, very interesting. I suppose there is an element of truth to the dragon - choceral story, being that the man that suposidly killed it was acturly berruid in the church. I did enjoy that 👍
The Piper of Windy Ha; at the hill of Windy Ha, a tumulus n Caithness: A farm boy rested as he was taking cattle to market, it was a hot day and he fell asleep. He was awakened by a beautiful lady dressed in green, that offered him the present of a Bible or bagpipes; he choose the pipes. The lady warned him to return to the hill in 7 years time, and he agreed. Of course when he returned home his family predicted his doom, as who else was this woman but the Queen of the Faeries ? Well, he had fame and fortune for his piping, after seven years he was never heard of again, yet at midsummers eve, a ghostly piping can be heard coming from the hill of Windy Ha.
Such a pretty little church. Do you know the year it was built? It looked so old on the outside, I was somewhat surprised that it looked fairly modern on the inside?
Now you don’t believe in the Cockatrice! Yet it flew off with my niece! Then you say it’s fantasy! So how about the octopus tree??? Vampire and a Cockatrice? Don’t go out at night in Cumbria!!
So lovely to see another part of the country. Love the colour of the local stone and Robert's tales. Keep on exploring!
The stone work is fabulous. I love it!
I’m glad that the cockatrice did not put off the villagers from building that lovely, simple church! Great Easter garden as well!
It is a grand church for a grand village, yes indeed! :)
Loving these Cumbrian videos. Looking forward to the next. Julia is so funny
I thankee kind sir!
Oh she is! Thanks for watching as ever!
Great story and stunning church, what a lovely peaceful looking place, I'd love to live here. 😊
The countryside side setting is fabulous too! I agree what a place to live.

A very grand headstone for a farm labourer. There must be more to that story!
I bet there is!

What is your favourite legend?
Lyminster dragon

@@malcolmcog Ooh that sounds really interesting!
Ah yes - must do a video about that soon!
Great story - one to explore when I go further up north!
A village in the English countryside without a pub. Doesn't seem right does it?
Bahahaha😂🤣😂🤣 Victorian Crowd Funding! Ah that Rodger, he's an amusing fella.
Such a pretty little church. Do you know the year it was built? It looked so old on the outside, I was somewhat surprised that it looked fairly modern on the inside?
I don't know off hand the age.
We love a good legend here at BE headquarters!
What a wacky name for a town. Surely they wouldn't name anyone after it.
Was that a baby cockatrice on the sun dial 🤔?
Oh, didn't spot that at the time, it could be!
I am not sure, but who knows!
Now you don’t believe in the Cockatrice! Yet it flew off with my niece! Then you say it’s fantasy! So how about the octopus tree??? Vampire and a Cockatrice? Don’t go out at night in Cumbria!!
I imagine the night is very very dark in rural Cumbria!
