Today on Folklore Matters, you can hear us discussing folklore and art, and consciously creating custom with the one and only Lucy Wright. She articulates things so beautifully so join us to connect all those folkloric dots you have floating around!

This was such a strong and important show here at Field System. @lunatraktors.bsky.social soundtrack provided the perfect backdrop- unsettling, defiant and rousing!

This weekend is your last opportunity to see Max Naylor’s extraordinary paintings in the Field System gallery. If you’re in the southwest of England and feel your eyes deserve a reward, come along.

We’d head up onto Dartmoor. Any of the Tors would provide a fabulous setting.

Treat yourself to a look at the horseshoes at Oakham Castle in Rutland. A quick search brings up loads of images, including the one below on luxuriousnomad.com. It’s a good place to visit, but a very long walk from here. There’s also a bakery nearby selling pecan buns that MUST NOT be ignored.
