The Black Horse
The America ground, without recourse
Where smugglers, thieves, and vagabonds so coarse
Woulds't quaff, ale, or gin, at The (dubious) Black Horse

in 1822, in Hastings uk, there was an uprising by the locals, who were living on the foreshore of Hastings beach rent free, in upturned hulls of ships etc, all rent free, until the local council tried to charge rent! there was a mini revolution, and they declared themselves independent, rose the stars, and stripes, hence that area today, is known as the America Ground :)
