The town was built along Watling Street, a Roman road originally. In the coaching era horses were changed here. Two of the main coaching inns in the town were the Cock and the Bull. Travellers' banter and rivalry between groups is said to have encouraged fanciful tales; hence, it is said, the source of the phrase 'cock and bull stories'. [Source: biography of Gordon Welchman, of Bletchley Park. His family lived in a house in the town - in Watling Street - during World War II] |
