Lincolnshire Folk Tales: Origins, Legacies, Connections, Futures

'Lincolnshire Folk Tales: Origins, Legacies, Connections, Futures’ is a project funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (grant number AH/Y003225/1), and is led by Dr Rory Waterman and the Research Fellow Dr Anna Milon in the School of Arts and Humanities at Nottingham Trent University. The project explores the origins, legacies, intertextual and social connections and futures of Lincolnshire folk tales, and is intended to facilitate wider engagement with this heritage from writers, the general public, and scholars.

Adverse Camber’s part of the project will be particularly focused on the inventiveness and creativity of young people aged 8 to 15, exploring how they interpret the legends and folktales of their places, passing them on into the future. We will be running outreach workshops with schools and groups.

More information about the project will be updated here over the next few months.
