What this location says about itself

- THE HAYCOCK IS SET IN THE PICTURESQUE VILLAGE OF
WANSFORD, SURROUNDED BY UNSPOILT CAMBRIDGESHIRE STONE
COTTAGES. THIS 16TH CENTURY COACHING INN HAS A
REMARKABLE AND EVENTFUL PAST. BOTH MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS,
AND THE YOUNG QUEEN VICTORIA HAVE BEEN VISITORS. IT IS
EVEN SAID THAT THE HAYCOCK ONCE CHANGED HANDS OVER A GAME
OF CARDS. THE HAYCOCK IS LOCALLY RENOWNED FOR ITS 18TH
CENTURY SIGN WHICH DEPICTS THE DRUNKEN BARNABY ON HIS
HAYCOCK. THE STORY TELLS THAT ONE DAY BARNABY FELL
ASLEEP AND AWOKE SEVERAL HOURS LATER TO FIND HIMSELF
AFLOAT IN THE RIVER. HE ASKED A PASSER BY WHERE HE WAS
- WANSFORD WAS THE REPLY, TO WHICH THE AMAZED BARNABY
SHOUTED WHAT - WANSFORD-IN-ENGLAND.
