Tales From The Footpath

The landscape of Great Britain is one that is full of stories. For centuries, walkers, authors, poets and sometimes combinations of all three have travelled across the length and breadth of this small island and collected the stories they have found along the way. Claire Joicey is one such collector. Having battled her nerves, she began a walk from Land's End to John O'Groats, collecting and weaving together stories of the people that she met along the way. It is through these stories that she explores the great diversity of the people who populate this island and the stories that they are able to tell.
