Description Incorrect Description? Tell Us!Clophill, recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Clopelle; meaning tree-stump Hill in old English, is a small village located in the Flit river valley, Bedfordshire, England. The village has an unjustifiable reputation for the supernatural, and its Flying Horse pub forms part of the legend of Dick Turpin; who reputedly stopped there en route to York. The legend goes that he was confronted here by bandits from the nearby "Jug" public house who were angry at a game of bowls being disrupted. It is thought the Jug crowd told Turpin to "Turn it In", which is where the localised "TII" phrase stems from. The Jug still remains a popular public house even now, with the phrase "You going down the Jug" still very popular amongst its customers from far and wide.

This village received some fame when TV dog behaviourist, Victoria Stilwell, from the Channel 4 show It's Me Or The Dog featured a client with a problem Chihuahua.
