In the afternoon we came to J—— C——n’s, about ten miles beyond Markfield; discourse. I was a little surprised at what he said: “A few months since there was a great awakening all around us: But since Mr S—— came, three parts in four are fallen as fast asleep as ever.”
John Wesley's Journal 10th June 1741.
Ten miles past Markfield is approx Kegworth, which is on the way to their next stop, Ockbrook.
