Where am l?
A riddle
From Vegas lights to London's charm,
I've crossed the seas without alarm.
Now in a place where wool once thrived,
And "Gibbet Law" was once contrived.
Not journey's end, but just a pause,
In Yorkshire's hills, where history draws.
My name recalls a purse held tight,
But I'm just one stop in British sights.
What town am I, this waypoint fair,
As two weeks' adventure fills the air?
TIL
The Gibbet Law. The guillotine was used in England before it was introduced into France, and was known as the Halifax Gibbet - a device for execution.
