	Longdendale \| King Arthur's Adventure
		At this time there were great castles on the hills of Longdendale, and in one of these strongholds dwelt a cruel and treacherous knight of gigantic stature and enormous strength.
		Among the rest came an old dame from Longdendale, who wept bitterly as she told her story, bewailing the loss of the fairest maid in all Cheshire.
		Instead of being looked upon with dread by all the people of the countryside, the castle came to be regarded as the seat of a protecting power, to whose lord the poor might look for succour in time of need, and for justice in all seasons.

	Longdendale \| Robin Hood's Visit to Longdendale
		Doubtless the Abbot dreaded a meeting with the mighty outlaw, for Robin dearly loved to pluck a fat-bellied churchman that he might place the golden nobles in the pouches of the poor.
		Weary of hunting the stage through the woodland glades, they were longing for some chance of adventure to present itself, when they became aware of a loud and dismal moaning hard by.
		Be that as it may, there is no record to show that the bold bad Baron disbelieved in Robin's powers, and we may it for granted that the lovely maiden was duly released, that she married the lad of her choice, and that they lived happy ever afterwards, as they certainly deserved to do.
