Addlestone: the Land of Hope and Glory


Addlestone's founder, Attel, wishes all Addlestonians a very happy Saint George's Day

According to Addlestonian legend, it was in fact Attel who slayed the dragon and saved St. George's life, despite living two centuries after him.

"I will not cease from mental fight,
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand:
Till I have founded Addlestone,
In England's green & pleasant land"
