Evershead

Tess "cut across the straight and deserted Roman road called Long-Ash Lane; leaving which as soon as she reached it she dipped down a hill by a transverse lane into the small town or village of Evershead, being now about halfway over the distance [between Flitcomb-Ash and Emminster]. She made a halt here, and breakfasted a second time, heartily enough -- not at the Sow-and-Acorn, for she avoided inns, but at a cottage by the church."

(Tess of the d'Urbervilles. Chapter 44)
