The Deer Stealers, November 24, 2010
This poem continues the story of the serpent of Serpent Well. It is closely based on the original in the Doncaster Gazette of 1864. As it is set in a pub (The Bald Faced Stag, now The Red Lion) I decided that Robert Service's poem, The Shooting of Dan McGrew would make a good model for my verse retelling.
