Description

In this book is a radical idea. By walking the ancient landscape of Britain and following the wheel of the year, we can reconnect to our shared folklore, to the seasons and to nature. Let this hauntological gazetteer guide you through our enchanted places and strange seasonal rituals: SPRING: Watch the equinox sunrise light up the floating capstone of Pentre Ifan and connect with the Cailleach at the shrine of Tigh nam Bodach in the remote Highlands SUMMER: Feel the resonance of ancient raves and rituals in the stone circles of southwest England's Stanton Drew, Avebury and the Hurlers AUTUMN: Bring in the harvest with the old gods at Coldrum Long Barrow, and brave the ghosts on misty Blakeney Point WINTER: Make merry at the Chepstow wassail, and listen out for the sunken church bells of the lost medieval city of Dunwich

Author's Bio

Formed in the hinterland between the bucolic and the eerie, Weird Walk began as three friends walking an ancient trackway across southern England. More walks followed and the first Weird Walk zine, now into its fifth edition, published in May 2019. Weird Walk also produce events, collaborate with brands, and in Autumn 2022 will present their first touring festival "Ley Line", following the mystical St Michael alignment through the south west of England on a quest for myth, magic, music and merriment.
