provided by Ken Cross
Ken
has devoted an enormous amount of time and energy to researching,
photographing and cataloguing the locations used in filming
The League of Gentlemen all over the country. He probably
knows more than anyone else apart from the location managers.
He is willing, by arrangement, to provide conducted walking
or car tours for small groups. Ken writes:
