The White Lion, Barthomley, south Cheshire…now closed. Built in 1614. Across the lane from the church of St Bertoline, the site of the Barthomley massacre during the English civil war.

Elton Hall Flash near Sandbach, Cheshire. The flashes are small lakes formed after ground collapse caused by extraction of salt.
