From Burbage Through Sherwood Forest and arrive at Aston (83 miles)

Near Enderby- Leicestershire. This region is called East Midland.

I have noticed that many of  the last couple of weeks I have seen "shire"at the end of the county name.  This term began in the 10th century at the beginning of the Anglo-Saxon settlement.  The picture below shows the large number of "shire" areas.

Can I expect to see phone booths in England in 2021? I do not see them in the US.

In Rarcliffe on the Wreake I find St. Botolph's church. The spire was rebuilt in 1812 and that is how I found the building.

I see this photo when Googling Willoughby-on-the-Wolds. So I did more research.

theK6project.co.uk shows many photos of these phone boxes all over the country.  It sounds it is an adventure for this individual.  I wonder if a bike is part of the project. Like the US, the UK has many fewer than they used to.  You know everyone uses a cellphone now.

I found this Lo-Cal IPA at Costco

A Penfold Pillar Box

In 1866 John Penfold designed these boxes for coll ecting mail. They are hexagonal and made of cast iron. This picture of the box in my next town, Budby.  When I looked to find out more, it turns out that in was taken in the middle of the night in 2017.

The Chesterfield Canal going through Worksop.

This canal opened in 1777 to transport iron, coal, limestone and lead.  In 1961 is closed, but now is for leisure use following the passage of the Transportation Act of 1968.

The band members of Black Sabbath are from this area.
