Fox’s Journey
Fox’s route is shown on the map below – we do not know his exact route.
He only first dictates a journal some ten years after the events of 1652 but this map can give us a rough idea of the way he went.
He went north from Pendle Hill, to Airton where he knew he would find a welcome from Major General Lambert, whom James Nayler served under in the Civil War, Then he went to Dent, before arriving in Sedbergh.
