Whisht! Lads: North East Folklore

The Lambton Worm with Gary Tate

Join me and Gary for a wander about Worm Hill in Fatfield to hear the story of the Lambton Worm - I know, not Penshaw Monument!
We chat about the evolution of folklore tales and how they change depending who is sharing it and where; and have a bit of crack about how the modern folk scene connects us to landscape, people, and history.
There's no falling over on this one, but we do hop a few fences.
Hope you enjoy the chat - and if you want to share your own, email me on northeastfolkloresociety@gmail.com 

The Drake Stone with Linsey Saxon

For this week's podcast we're doing something a bit different, wandering around the Drake Stone feeling its energy and sharing the tales we've heard about its history.
We also chat about community building, permission to folk, and how Linsey became to be known at the Westminster Lady
If you'd like to meet me for a wander and chat about your favourite north east folklore tale, email northeastfolkloresociety@gmail.com

The Laidly Worm of Bamburgh with Lauren Moss

I met with Lauren Moss (@folkloriclauren) in a very wet and windy Bamburgh to hear about the Laidly Worm of Bamburgh.
 
We chat about immersive folklore experiences, medieval recipes (with herbs, please), and her recommended local sites to head along to and learn more about north east folklore.

Johnny Reed's Cat with Dave Silk

Join Dave Silk and the North East Folklore Society's, Nikki, for a wander around St Andrews' graveyard to hear the folklore tale, Johnny Reed's Cat.
Come for the spooky cat; but stay for the chat about churches, local authors, and where to look if you're interested in North East folklore.
