  • Episode 1: Chanctonbury Ring
    Feb 6 2024

    Welcome to Whispers From The Land! 

    This month, we're exploring the history and folklore surrounding Chanctonbury Ring, an iron age hill fort on the South Downs in West Sussex. Chanctonbury Ring was in use from the late iron age through to the end of the Roman occupation in Britain, but has a rich history of folklore and use by pagan groups and occultists right into the 21st century. Listen to me ramble about all of the things that make this small hill on the Sussex Downs so interesting!

    All original music composed and performed by Matthew Wells.
