About This Event

Find out about the folkloric stories, beliefs, and customs of people living in England today. Almost 90% of people in England are familiar with the figure of Robin Hood. A quarter of people in England today say the summer or winter solstices are of spiritual significance to them personally. Back in February, the team behind the The National Folklore Survey for England came to Weston Park to introduce the project and outline some of its early findings. Now they're back to tell us more about what the people of England value, believe, and practice.
