Well done Pete.   I didn't add too many clues to start with as I thought it would go quickly.


The memorial close by is the Johnson Memorial.  The following short account of this tragedy is worth a read.

Was on the crossroads of an 'A' road and 'B' road.  The 'A' road is now a Bypass.

Many thanks Grandarog,


It was the only other place I could think of.


Next one.   What's the name of this village ?   No clues  - yet.   Clues might not be needed
