I was researching for information on this Cache Location & came
across this interesting story:
Close to this location during the late 1950's & early 1960's
a rather eccentric wandering storyteller by the name of "Fethworth
Noggins" would often stop to sit & tell a tale or two as he
passed through on his travels around the Welsh Countryside.
His visits here, became more frequent & he soon became
accquainted with the Landlord of a nearby Tafarn who offered him a
room for few nights. At night he would entertain the folks of the
village with his outlandish fantasy stories. & during the day
he would often be found sitting on a tree stump surrounded by
fascinated children who would sit listening in silence, eagerly at
his vast collection of Fables & Tales.
The Storyteller soon became fond of the village & its
inhabitants so he chose to settle here for the time being. For a
while he was a popular character but it wasn't long before his
popularity began dwindle.
One afternoon an angry group of Parents accompanied by School
Master confronted the Storyteller accusing him of filling the young
& impresssionable minds of the children with nonsense with his
tales of adventure & mischief & of encouraging the children
to play truant from school in order to attend Fethworth's
readings.
One child even stole the village blacksmith's horse claiming to
be "Billy the Kid" & planned to Ride to "The Wild West to fight
the Red Indians" The childs father had discovered a goodbye note
left by the would-be runaway which ended the childs planned
outing..! Noggins was forced to leave the village & told never
to return.He was never seen or heard of again, but strangley enough
every year a book of Tall Tales is left on the old tree stump once
favoured by the Wandering Storyteller.!
