Bakewell is famous for tarts - Chesterfield for a dodgy spire :-) |

I heard that the twisted spire on the church in Bakewell was caused because a virgin was married in the church and the spire was so surprised it bent down to get a better look and was unable to get up straight again. |

Not heard of Rhyl woman. No, one I'm thinking of was in Lllangollen sort of area and was long time ago, Maggie. |

:-0 :-0 :-0 I will let the Ladies themselves divulge their sexual proclivity behind closed doors, if they are able. Was Liz Sturt in their bedroom(s) at the time? |

Am sure I remember in the Llangollen area that they dug up the grave of a "virgin" several years after death and found her body still pure and intact. |

There also seem to be several who all died around 1843, who you wouldn't expect to "deserve" one, for want of a better phrase, Maggie. |
