Fairly near those villages is also a village called Moreton.   The lovely
church there has the most beautifully engraved windows, not stained glass,
engraved on plain glass as a memorial to those lost in the wars.  Well worth
a visit if you are in the area.  It is also near to the villages of "Turners
Puddle", "Affpuddle", "Briantspuddle".

I wonder how many of you have been 'where' I have been?   To "Ware" in
Hertfordshire?   

Just another quirky English name place.
