The Guide
In their time
Travellers crossing moors, fens, forests or tidal sands often hired local people who knew the safe ways, and on the worst crossings getting lost could be fatal. On a few dangerous routes guides became a long-standing institution: across the sands of Morecambe Bay, local priories kept guides in the Middle Ages, and after the Dissolution the crown, through the Duchy of Lancaster, appointed them. A guide served merchants, pilgrims, messengers and anyone unfamiliar with the country.
