At the start of the fifteenth century a dragon appeared at a ford on the River Stour.
It devoured many wayfarers until Sir Bertram de Haye killed it by felling a tree onto the beast.
Another story tells how the creature was slain by Sir George Marney using his lance. Perhaps this is what became of the dragon who fled from the archers at nearby Bures.
