Spent a fantastic 3 days in the Black Mountains, taking groups on guided walks and discussing medieval attitudes to mountain landscapes.

Reading Middle English poetry on top of a mountain was a particular highlight (for me at least, but I think other people enjoyed it too)!

"The comly coste of Normandy they catchen full even /And blithely at Barflete these bold are arrived"

"For to seeken a saint by yon salt stremes, / In Saint Michel mount, there miracles are shewed."
