The Ford Lane Dog The Broughton Calf |

Salford is a small village in the southwest of the county. The name derives from the Saxon Seathford meaning Willow Ford. In the Domesday Book of 1086 it is known as Saleford and a mill stood on the site. A later mill was still in use on the site up until the early 1960s. The church of St Mary dates from 1200.
Brittens Lane, formerly Ford Lane, is haunted by the Ford Lane Dog. This is a beast with eight legs and two heads.
