Wortley Village in South Yorkshire.
Birthplace (in 1639) of highwayman John Nevison, aka 'Swift Nick'. It was Nevison's ride from Rochester, in Kent, to York that inspired the later legend of (fellow footpad) Dick Turpin's famous 15 hour dash from London to York - the latter event never actually took place.
