The Village of Daresbury
Daresbury is a small "classical" English village located about
thirty kilometers (twenty miles) south west of Manchester.
It's quite a pretty place which just happens to be the birth place
of Lewis Carroll, author of the children's classics
Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass.

interesting Lewis Carroll clock in the lobby).

About 75% of the village is visible in this photograph (i.e. it isn't
very big).
