Stanion
Stanion is a village and civil parish in the county of Northamptonshire in England. At the time of 2001 census, the parish's population was 873 people.〔(Office for National Statistics: Stanion CP: Parish headcounts ). Retrieved 21 November 2009〕 The village church is dedicated to St Peter. Within the church there is (as of 2009) a curious antiquity. This is a 7 ft long whalebone, although tradition avers that it is actually part of the skeleton of a Dun Cow. This was a fabled beast from English folklore, and according to various versions of the story the Stanion cow was either killed or died of a broken heart after being tricked by a witch. Graffiti etched onto the bone indicates it dates from the 17th century.〔Codd, Daniel (2009). ''Mysterious Northamptonshire''. Breedon Books. p.147-149. ISBN 9781859836811〕 The village of Stanion was shown in the Wartime film "Springtime in an English Village (1944)" ==References==
