Christmas in Crowden

Saison 1 · Épisode 29

jeudi 21 décembre 2023 • Durée 27:24

Back in March (episode 8), Clare Savory visited an almost forgotten chapel on the hillside between Woodhead and Crowden... Now a group of volunteers from across the Longdendale valley (and beyond) have rescued St James' Church.

In this special Christmas episode, Clare invites Longdendale Tales listeners in for a sneak peek of the first concert at the chapel in years.

Music is provided by Adrian Loader and Arnfield Brass Band. Tintwistle-based celebrant Steph Baker leads the service.

You can support the volunteers repairing St James by donating to their crowdfunder campaign here: crowdfunder.co.uk/p/st-james-church-restoration-fund

Soundscaping The Old House Tunnel, Rain and Pylons

Saison 1 · Épisode 28

dimanche 2 avril 2023 • Durée 08:42

As the series draws to a close, Clare Savory follows an old path underneath the Longdendale Trail, where there’s another railway tunnel marked ‘The Old House’.

She ponders over words Robert Macfarlane shared about the origins of paths and “the secrets they keep of adventures, meetings and departures”.

Clare walks from one end of the tunnel to the other - listen closely to the buzz of the pylons, to the raindrops inside, to the heavy rain and birdsong at the opposite end.

And she tells a tale of a cat called ‘hero’ that is said to haunt the area, along with its owner who cursed all that tread the path of the railway…

This pilot project was supported by Glossop Creates as part of their Pairings programme, matched with Matt Ross at the Peak District National Park’s Longdendale Environmental Centre in Tintwistle.

Saison 1 · Épisode 19

vendredi 24 mars 2023 • Durée 25:00

Peak District National Park community ranger/oracle Matt Ross returns to the podcast to tell us how he inspires the future generation using stories of stoneflies and nymphs.

Bottoms, Benefits and Barriers To Moving More

Saison 1 · Épisode 18

jeudi 23 mars 2023 • Durée 33:33

Helen Thornhill from Move More Glossop, a community partnership project led by The Bureau, encourages more of us to get fit by building activity into our everyday life.

Clare Savory and Helen take a popular loop around Bottoms Reservoir to talk about who, why and how she helps people get started - no matter their mobility.

Plus, they bump into a local chap called Jimmy by chance - who it turns out used to work on the reservoirs some 30+ years ago. He shares a few tales about climbing down the steps in the valve houses and walking the aqueducts underneath the waterways to clear the silt and tree roots!

Plenty more info about the groups Helen talks about, including the Reservoir Ramblers here: https://the-bureau.org.uk/move-more-glossop/

Stone Masons, Witches’ Markings And (More) Victorian Pottery

Saison 1 · Épisode 17

mercredi 22 mars 2023 • Durée 38:18

Following the medieval trackway from Padfield towards Deep Clough, archaeologist Tim Campbell-Green and Clare Savory sift through the stone mason markings in the tunnels under the Longdendale Trail, as well as spotting two apotropaic markings on a bridge: “two inverted V’s”. These religious markings are believed to have been used to ward off evil or bad luck…and perhaps witches after the reformation?!

Elsewhere, we stumble across some more Victorian pottery, a ‘glacial erratic’ and Tim shares the vision for his Glossop Creates Pairings: ‘A Big Dig’!

Spoiler alert: We end this episode in a tunnel surrounded by mould, lichen and spider webs!

8 air crashes; 36 people killed, 2 survivors...That's just in and around the area surrounding Bleaklow moor between the years 1939 and 1956.

Mountain leader Alan Clark joins Clare Savory for a second podcast episode looking into the many crash sites on the south side of the Longdendale moors. They were recording sat at the memorial site on Bramah Edge.

The Day A Snowy Woodhead Pass Was Closed

Saison 1 · Épisode 14

dimanche 19 mars 2023 • Durée 09:28

For this week’s Sunday Soundscape, we walk beside an almost silent Woodhead Pass - usually filled with the deafening sound of lorries and cars driving all day and all night.

But today, with 7 inches of snow, the area surrounding Rhodeswood Reservoir and Didsbury Intake was filled with nothing but the sounds of long tailed tits, blue tits and great tits. Well, and lots of melting ice falling from the towering trees above...

This week’s poignant words come from the Scottish poet Thomas A Clark’s ‘In Praise Of Walking’.
