The beating of the bounds, usually in rogation week is still alive and kicking in a number of places throughtout the country.
We must be posh down our way becuase we have perambulations of the bounds. These perambulations date back into the mists of time. The early perambulation documents are very useful to get hold of as they often mention long lost stones or names of stones that have fallen out of use.
There are tales around our way of stones being moved during the perambulations. One land owner may do a little land-grabbing from his neighbour leading to alsorts of unpleasant happenings.
