「ます形」の矩折れになった所で、熊川では「まがり」と呼びます。昔、敵の突進を防ぐために作られたであろう曲がり角で、藩の規則や命令などを掲示する高札場(こうさつば)にもなったようです。The L-shaped bend in the road between the Shimoncho and Nakancho areas of Kumagawa-juku is referred to as the Magari (“the Bend”) by the residents. It is considered a remnant of military defenses from the time when a mountain castle overlooked the village. Similar constructs called masugata (literally “box shape”) were used in castle towns to impede the advance of potential attackers. In addition to defensive purposes, the Magari also served as a communal place for posting regional laws and orders.
