Viewed from the junction of Bell Lane, Ovington Road, Cley Lane and Chequers Lane. An unnamed 'self-murderer' was buried near here in around 1790. For some unexplained reason he had been seen pouring wine and beer into the river and was 'sent to Coventry' (meaning he was deliberately ostracised) by the locals. As a result he killed himself.
