Who We Are, and
How to Find Us
|
PILFERSHIRE: In the
late 1700's, according to local folklore, a
tinker was passing through Red Rock, with a wagon
laden with pots and pans. To his utter dismay,
the wagon overturned on the rough road. His cry
for help was heard by the local residents, who
rushed out to rectify the overturned cart. When
the tinker regained his composure, he alleged
that some of his inventory was missing, and
declared that it had been pilfered by those who
had rushed to "help" him. In revenge,
the disgruntled tinker wandered about the area,
referring to Red Rock as "Pilfershire,"
much to the delight of the residents of
neighboring villages, who were happy to enjoy a
good joke at the expense of their irritated Red
Rock neighbors. Today, of course, the local
residents are very respectable, and that
"p" word is almost forgotten, but
please don't mention it to the lifetime
residents, becausesome of them are still
sensitive!
You will find us just past
the "Red Rock" historical marker. Leave
your pots and pans at home.
