    I don’t see this place Nunnington marked on the map in the "Featured sites" web page.   But I am new to this website.   Have I missed something?   Is that map meant to show the location of all the stories in the website?   (This is a question for the website makers, not a comment for that entry  —  the next para could be that.)

    This legend is also in the book "Folk tales from the North York Moors" by Peter Walker.   His version has a lot about one of the maidens taken by the "worm", making a fuller story.   I do not know how much Walker adds himself  —  he is a good narrator but does not give sources.

    Hi Timothy.  All the articles relating to specific sites are listed in our gazetteer under country and county.  The Featured Sites are a list of locations that may be of special interest.

    I’ll look out for Peter Walker’s book 🙂
