About this listen

A spring bonus episode of sorts, recorded for season one but never released, its seasonal theme sees it make it into Season 2...

Well-dressing is much loved local custom which enjoys an almost exclusive patronage in the county of Derbyshire. It’s origins are much debated and appear to be forever shrouded in the deep history of the region’s ancient past, yet when stripping away the layers of the tradition involved in the ceremony and pairing with the country’s Roman history, a startling possibility begins to emerge.

Mythstoric Journeys, the hardback anthology collection from Eli, is available here!
