Summary

Description
English: High Street, Stony Stratford, Buckinghamshire, England. Stony Stratford is a constituent town of Milton Keynes but it was once an important town in its own right, a coaching stop a day's journey from London by stage-coach on the London-Birmingham Turnpike ((Watling Street, later to become the A5). The legacy of this role is two coaching inns on the High Street, the Bull (seen here in the foreground), and a little further along the Cock. They were known for the tales that travellers would tell and, it is said, gave rise to the expression 'Cock and Bull story'.
