The cockatrice is a creature that first appeared in Renwick in the the late 1600's as the people of Renwick were leaving the church. a cockatrice is a creature that is a said to be a cross between a cockerel and a dragon. the only way to defeat a cockatrice, according to legend, is to bop it on the head with a rowan branch, or something along those lines. the general gist of it is that it's scared of rowan branches. the man who defeated it was called John Tallentire, though it ws probably not his idea and may have been  his mum who told him what to do.. just joking. although you never know...(ok we do, we are just messing you about now and it is probably time we shut up).
