Britains oldest annual horse race, The Kiplingcote Derby, it has to be run every year, if it isn’t run then it stops forever. It ends near Kiplingcote station. It began in 1519. Fascinating: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kipling...

I can't message you, but this may be interesting for you. P.Stowell was the engineer at Manweb, I worked with one of his sons who was the Signal & Telegraph engineer at the Llangollen Railway.
