 BEATING THE BOUNDS - LoveToKnow Article on BEATING THE BOUNDS
The priest of the parish with the churchwardens and the parochial officials headed a crowd of boys who, armed with green boughs, beat with them the parish border-stones.
This clerical side of the parish bounds-beating was one of the religious functions prohibited by the Injunctions of Queen Elizabeth; but it was then ordered that the perambulation should continue to be performed as a quasi-secular function, so that evidence of the boundaries of parishes, andc.
It is thought that it may have been derived from the Roman Terminalia, a festival celebrated on the 22nd of February in honor of Terminus, the god of landmarks, to whom cakes and wine were offered, sports and dancing taking place at the boundaries.

 Ales Stenar, Sweden
In the summer of 2000, while in Sweden, I visited twice Ales Stenar (Ale Stones), the mysterious "ship-setting" made of 59 large boulders set in a layout of a ship, 67 metre in length, 19 metre in breadth.
According to some, the name Als (or Ale) meant a "sanctuary" in the ancient Nordic language, and according to others it meant a "ridge," what would correspond well to the topographic location of Ales Stenar on a 37 metre-high ridge of the Baltic shore [i].
A broader goal, however, was to explore the ridge on both sides of the Ale ship-setting and the Kåseberga village area in order to correlate the remnants of the prehistoric settlements that had been found earlier during the archaeological excavations at several sites in other villages in the large area north of the ridge.

 Poets' Corner - Sir Walter Scott - The Lay of the Last Minstrel
The cairns, or piles of loose stones, which crown the summit of most of our Scottish hills, and are found in other remarkable situations, seem usually, though not universally, to have been sepulchral monuments.
Such caverns may be seen in the precipitous banks of the Teviot at Sunlaws, upon the Ale at Ancram, upon the Jed at Hundalee, and in many other places upon the Border.
Six flat stones are commonly found in the centre, forming a cavity of greater or smaller dimensions, in which an urn is often placed.

Next morning, O'Donnell was so fatigued that he was not able to keep up with his companions; for the thin shoes he wore had fallen in pieces with wet, and his feet were torn and bleeding from sharp stones and thorns.
Hugh, being hardier, however, fared better: after some time he was able to swallow a little ale, and his strength began to return.
In young O'Donnell himself more especially, it engendered feel- ings of exasperation and irreconcilable hatred; and it was one of the causes of the O'Neill war which brought unmeasured woe and disaster to both English and Irish.

Henges are large, roughly circular enclosures containing circles of wooden posts or standing stones.
Several burials were found within the North Mains henge - the best preserved being that of a young woman in a stone cist accompanied by a fine pot, which seems to have contained ale flavoured with the plant Meadowsweet.
Rather it covered a roughly circular structure which had a function similar to that of the henge, that is a ceremonial one.

Tetley Mild, Deuchars IPA, Black Sheep Bitter and Shepherd Neame were the offerings - the Deuchars, which had taken serious hammer the day before, was spot on.
To the left, along with two comfy side rooms, is a no smoking dining area furnished with laid out tables (nothing stopping non-eaters settling down if they’re vacant).

Two interesting cultural references in this book are to those of the warlike and doughty Normans, with their glasses made from their enemies skulls 'eek, their ale and their delicious cream sauce dishes, Boar in cream sauce,chicken in cream sauce, sausages in cream sauce etc.
Also remember this book was written at a time when the Rolling Stones where hitting the world like a bolt of thunder-1966- and Justforkix brings some 50 BC rock music to the village.
Being not a particularly brave sort, it is particularly unfortunate for Justforkix that his visit coincides with a visit by the fierce Normans, who are on an expedition to learn the meaning of fear.
