Path to the top of Ragged Stone Hill
Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Path to the top of Ragged Stone Hill Looking north with the top just ahead. It is said to be bad luck to stand in the shadow of the Ragged Stone Hill. This derives from a story of a 14th Century monk called John, who as a punishment for seeking the company of a woman was made to crawl up the hill each morning to say his prayers. After weeks of this, John had had enough and whilst staggering to the top he noticed a dark shadow coming over him. He shouted out 'I will say no more prayers today, I lay instead my curse upon my punishers. May all upon whom the shadow of this rock falls die before their time, as I do!' With this he fell to his death in the valley below and his body was never found. |
