| Legend: |
"About halfway along a narrow twisting lane called Mill Road is a part known locally as Sandy Hills, with a tiny bridge over a stream at the lowest point between the two hills [TM37467845.] It is this area where the ghostly hound Black Shuck, sometimes called the Shaggy Dog, is supposed to roam on dark nights, bringing misfortune to all who see him."
