Chesterfield, United Kingdom

three hundred years ago, this cottage was an alehouse, the 'Cock and Pynot' ('Pynot' is a dialect word for magpie), and it was here, as history and tradition relate, that three local noblemen- the Earl of Devonshire (from nearby Chatsworth), the Earl of Danby and Mr. John D'Arcy - met to begin plann

ing their part in events which led to the overthrow of King James II in favour of William and Mary of Orange.
