About this listen

Richard Bradley is a librarian at Sheffield Hallam University, where Folklore Matters hosts, David Clarke, Sophie Parkes-Nield, and Diane Rodgers, are based. But in the world of folklore, Richard is known as 'Weird Derbyshire' and has been researching, attending and documenting the folklore and customs of Derbyshire for the past decade. He's published four local history books including 'Secret Chesterfield' and 'The A - Z of Curious Derbyshire', and writes a monthly feature on the folklore of Derbyshire for Derbyshire Life magazine since 2020. It's about time we sat down with Richard to learn more about his work, his interests, and how he discovered Weird Derbyshire.
