More about this scene
Lying at the end of a little lane that is a dead end, this is yet another former port that now lies, quite literally, some miles inland - the church even has an iron ring attached to it where once, so it is said, boats could be tied up. This is the view from the entrance to the churchyard.

Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
Back in 1959, when I was training as a teacher at Chester College (now University), I spent a week doing an environmental studies project in and around Shotwick. Unfortunately my final study was handed in for assessment and never returned. One thing that fascinated me at the time was that a Shotwick lady was reputed to have grown horns. I would be pleased if anyone can refresh my memory of this little piece of Shotwick folklore.
