Geocache Description:

A quick cache and dash

Another in the Series of Village Signs this is of Old Stratford On London Road.

The Stony Stratford Hoard was actually found in the parish of Old Stratford across the River Ouse from Stony Stratford. It is not known where it originally came from or how it got there. It is immediately north of where the Roman road Watling Street crossed the Ouse; just south of this crossing point is the town of Stony Stratford in Milton Keynes. Originally on the junction of the A5, the A422 and the A508, these roads now bypass the village on its northern edge. The Buckingham Arm of the Grand Union Canal passed through the village but has been disused since 1964. There remains a "Wharf Lane" and signs of the path of the old canal through the village towards Buckingham.

If anybody would like to expand to this series please do. I would just ask that you let Smokeypugs know first so they can keep track of the Village Sign numbers and names to avoid duplication.
