| story:- |
It is claimed that in the 16th century a young man was told by the father of his lady
love, that he could only marry her when he had built a house with twelve chimneys.
So he did, and they lived happily ever after. The 12 chimneys were set up along the
roof ridge, and smoke was seen coming out of them every wedding anniversary. |
