Extract:
SHENLEY:
'The
eighteenth century lock-up called the Cage stands by the village pond.
Law breakers were put in there overnight before being taken by horse and
cart to Barnet to appear before the bench. Inscriptions over two windows
are: "Be sober, be vigilant" and "Do well
and fear naught". 'The
pond is an attractive feature and restored by the CMS and volunteers.
Pound Lane and Pound House are reminders of the old Pound near the Black
Lion Inn where straying animals were kept.'
