SU2686 : Farmland, Snivelling CornerSU2686 : Snivelling CornerThe name Snivelling Corner is more interesting than just being where 4 drains meet. The name comes from one of the legends about Wayland the Smith (Anglo-Saxon) who lived at the nearby neolithic burial site that bears his name. According to the legend he had a boy called Flibbertigibbet who he had sent to Longcot to get more nails to shoe horses with. On finding that Flibbertigibbet had wandered and gone bird nesting, Wayland flew in to a rage and threw a huge stone which struck him on the heel. He sat down on the same rock that had hit him and cried and cried ... the rock had a large chip out of the corner where it had hit his heel. Until 1965 there was a large sarsen stone at this site with a characteristic chunk missing at one corner. Presumably the stone was removed by some philistine farmer. However ... the name remains.
