There were several suggestions about the origins of the phrase Stokes Bridge in 2008, but I have found nothing further. Since my family also used that phrase for the moment when one was feeling unable to eat the whole meal, and being especially interested that some of the users recalled that phrase being used in Herefordshire, my curiosity was peeked. Was there a definite & near-agreed explanation ever posted as to where Stokes' Bridge was (assuming it was indeed a real place as opposed to, say, a literary allusion )? -- Breconian.
