Toddington, A Memory

The Church c1965
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

Local legend says that a witch is imprisoned within the mound beside the church at Toddington, and there was a local tradition that on Shrove Tuesday ('Pancake Day'), the day before Ash Wednesday, if we put our ears to the ground on the mound we could hear the witches frying their pancakes. I was a child in the 1940s and always visited my gran on Pancake Day, she lived opposite the mound.
