The Green Man of Marsden
Back in January, I was invited out to the pub with Ang for a drink after we had spent the day at the Marsden Infant and Nursery School helping the young kiddies make their Imbolc masks. It was then when I told her about the Great Western - a pub on the road towards Diggle and Uppermill only about 3 miles away from here where a boggart had been seen (see 'Haunted Huddersfield' by Kai Roberts - now for purchase) and she told me about the green man in Marsden Park.
She said that nobody knows how old it is, but that it was concreted there years ago (I wonder when that was). I did not see it till about month later when Ang and I went for a walk around behind the primary school to look for her stolen compost bin (a kid had said he'd seen it there). Just as I walked toward the rotunda, I asked where the green man was and she said 'there' and pointed right behind me - below a monument was the green man. Lovely!
The Green Man *could* be Medieval - you never know!!
