не поздоровиться (Here then we gather, three warriors met some fourteen hundred years ago. There were two from Cheddleton, which was a Celtic colony, and one from the British colony at Abbey Green, or vice versa. Celt met Briton on horseback, and as it was on Ladderedge when a Stanlow of Stanlow, fought, on coming home from a fair with a neighbour, so it was on the Cheddleton road, still earlier. All three were killed, the horses fairing badly in the battle. The neighbours laid them side by side where they fell, covered them with stones, and set a cross over them, for they were, perhaps just Christians – only just both in time and temper. The horror of the battle could not be forgotten; it still clings to this spot. -- коням не поздоровилось в бою  wordpress.com ART Vancouver) |
