Legend of All Stretton's name

Latest comment: 6 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I agree with the citation need placed against this stated legend that James I was the king who said of All Stretton and its neighbours (Church and Little) that they were 'all Strettons here'. Although I do not have the book to cite accurately, I do recall the legend being ascribed by Vincent Waite, in his book (1970s) Shropshire Hill Country, to the later James II. Waite commented the latter king was possibly not in good enough humour to say it as he had earlier in his progress had a humiliating experience in Worcester of being received by an "illiterate and dim-witted" (Waite's words) mayor, who had passed on as his speech the angry prompting words of his town clerk!Cloptonson (talk) 18:13, 11 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
