Thyner

Thyner is a small village located in the heart of the English countryside, nestled between the rolling hills and the River Thames.

Thyner was originally a small settlement, but it grew over time as it became a popular stopping point for travelers along the ancient Roman road, Ermine Street. The village's name is believed to have derived from the Old English words "thyn" and "ere," meaning "enclosure" or "fenced area."
