Little Crosby
Created | Updated Aug 16, 2005
Very much like Crosby Village, only without the beach, the nightlife, the shopping centre, nor any form of cinema/pub/takeaway.
Occupying just a few roads amid a large area of farmland and motorway-landscaped woodland, Little Crosby is something of an enigma. The traffic is incredibly high (due to the speedy motorway-bypass that its roads allow,) but the village lacks virtualy any reason for said traffic to pull over and take in the view.
The conveniences comprise of: a church, a rustic teahouse, an alarmingly expensive antique's dealer and a local museum which suspiciously resembles somebody's home, right down to the garden gate, the lack of public information, and a nagging suspicion that you've trespassed on somebody else's land simply by following said 'museum' sign in the first place.
Keen walkers from Crosby Village do often pass through though; the time it takes to circumnaviage the pleasantly rural roads and pastures is just long enough to give one the feeling of exercise, but not quite long enough to truly knacker one into exhaustion.
Whether or not there is any kind of lingering animosity betwixt Greater Crosby and Little Crosby is unclear, although the former are often known to pass reference to both Deliverance and Roysten Vasey when talking of the latter.
