Tailer's Family - journeying!
Visiting:- Redbourn, Hertfordshire
No. 1 - 5:- Exploring Churchend, Redbourn.
Church End - Considered to be the original site of the village.
So, one may assume that in Tudor times the village 'moved'; that is to the attraction of serving the travellers along Watling Street. As we have seen before there were numerous hostelries of all types serving a public with liquor and other refreshments and there was the best place to earn ones money! So, that was where you built your house, and you leave the elderly, and the children behind, to tend the fields in this agricultural area.
Looking down the street towards the Parish Church, whose tower can just be seen amidst the trees at the far end. To see the church look at my Photostream for the 17th August.
On the extreme left here is the Workhouse, as was, a row of cottages, as is, see Photostream of 16.08.09 no. 5 - 5.
