Going from my childhood experience in South Norfolk, every village had its headless horseman somewhere or other, and almost every farm had a pond which was known to be a "bottomless pit". As for gretol black dawgs....

I think all the local papers have a treasure trove of similar tales archived.

Sarah Walker is the daughter of 'Nicolas Rhea' (pseudonym) who wrote both book and some of TV Heartbeat series, and some Emmerdale storylines for YTV.He used to write a local interest column in local papers too having taken over from Major Fairfax Blakeborough who lived just across the dale here.
More than once we felt it was kind of obvious who was being playfully targeted!

This made me laugh:

A couple of Yorkshire locals were discussing birth and death in the pub. “Was thoo born ‘ere?” asked one.

“Nay, I was born ower ‘t’ill in Rossdall. Mind I’ve lived in these parts for maist o’ me life.”

“Thoo’ll likely die here, then?” suggested his friend.

“Now I can’t be sure o’ that. If I knew where I was gahin ti die, I’d keep well clear o’ t’spot!”
