A goddess associated with farming and with cattle, two very important commodities in Celtic society. She was reared on the milk of a fairy cow, and pictured as a beautiful woman wearing a crown, and a breastplate, and carrying a spear.

Re: Brigante
I am looking for stories about Rombalds Moor, there is Rombald the giant and his wife who dropped stones from her apron, very little of story. It is also said that the name rombald came from Norman landowners.
A story around Brigante, fighting the romans and a connection with the cow and calf rocks would be very good. Do I have to create it or is there something out there already?
