Synopsis
A book for dipping into, liberally illustrated with black and white photographs. Here you will find a selection of England's lesser-known folkloric and historical curiosities: ghost stories; tales of devilry, witchcraft, and revenants; highway robbery and murder; dragons and giants; local takes on national history; characterful carvings in wood and stone; ancient monuments and their associated folklore; and a curious tale or two that defy conventional classification.
Neither an academic tract, nor a fully-comprehensive guide, it has been written purely for the reader’s amusement, and in terms of its geographical compass is a somewhat motley affair. And without further ado, let me wish you well in your travels, and your exploration of this eternally curious England.
