Blacke Dickon: "In the Robin Hood
tradition this is where Robin Hood kept a fast horse to go up and down the
King's Great Way - the main highway through Sherwood Forest."
Robin Hood's stables are hidden just
outside Papplewick, near to the King's Great Way.
Originally, they were probably a hermitage that has been dug out over
the years. In the original Robin Hood legend Robin Hood doesn't ride a
horse at all. That's left for Errol Flynn and Kevin Costner.
