Ashbourne, cobbled streets and gingerbread
[Click image to zoom in]
Ashbourne's food speciality is gingerbread. French prisoners of war brought the recipe to the town during the Napoleonic Wars. Ashbourne is also famous for its magnificent Georgian architecture and cobbled streets. Oh, and Samuel Johnson who wrote the first English dictionary enjoyed staying and drinking here.
