Unstead (Deceased),<br /><br />It is always a pleasure to have you comment here, and we Ramblers are huge admirers of your corpus. <br /><br />With regard to the location of the stocks: having consulted the notes in my tweed Ramblers' journal, I am reminded that this apparatus is located in the porch of St Margaret's of Antioch, South Elmham, Suffolk. <br /><br />Antiquarian Salutations!The Ragged Society of Antiquarian Ramblershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14512955306646644472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6107938531564502891.post-58799125616211000212010-06-29T10:11:03.333+01:002010-06-29T10:11:03.333+01:00Of particular interest is the five hole stocks, wh...Of particular interest is the five hole stocks, which with its odd number of holes I'm sure will have some of your readers scratching their heads.
