A couple of years ago there was a body found down the river where I walk my dog regularly. It wasn't suspicious in the end, some junkie who had ODed but it had been there a while and was badly decomposing, glad I didn't find it!

canley ford does have a bit of a history

some centuries ago a stage coach raced along the road which was where 'the phantom coach' pub now stands and down the lane into the ford,where it crashed...the ford and the pub are supposed to be haunted

the in the 70's there was a huge detached house at the top of the lane at the A45 end,urban myth says that the man of the house for some reason had a fit of rage and killed his family then himself,the house was never sold and was eventually demolished.....all thats left now are the concrete foundations and hardiest of plants which were planted in the garden

now bear in mind i wont walk down there without the dogs,just in case.......some 10 years ago a man of about 50 was gay raped by a man of about 65...one end of the lane is now used by gay doggers

i suspect that this latest victim was his own fault though,the meadow he was found in contains highland cattle with big horns...i suspect he was drunk and did something stupid like hitting them or something and got gored
