Lorna When i was younger my siblings and i used to play in and around Mother Ludhams cave collecting frogs from the little stream that runs from the entrance to the river Wey it was always an eerie place and very quiet there was a smaller hole above the main cave and it was full of cooking things and old tin pots we were always a bit scared of the legend so we left everything alone but the weird thing was that after having a play and collecting our frogs and placing them securely in our saddle bags on our bicycles, we would ride home only to find upon opening the bags all the frogs had disappeared and there was noway they could have escaped so where did they go? its funny how things stick in your mind but it did help keep the legend alive and now i have a child of my own and i have told her all about this wonderful little bit of Waverly history and i hope she tells her children too.
