Piggy Longton 1471
Introduction
The Parish of Piggy Longton, sits in Dungborough, a ficticious setting where my Wars of the Roses collection can romp around. Being the family seat of Lord Darcy, Piggy Longton can be counted upon to support the Lancastrian cause.
Nearby, in West Rottington, lives Lord Trebian of Yorkist pursausion ... yes, a ready recipe for conflict and intrigue.
The history of Piggy Longton
