  2. Danes' Pipes

    Share Share Post
    Many people in this neighbourhood have found clay pipes, shank about 3" and head about the size of a thimble. They are called Danes' Pipes. I myself found one in the cabbage-plot some years ago, and my grandfather (Michael Brennan, Garrow) told me it was a Dane's pipe.
