fen-edge encounters · notes from an unremarkable country
Hi Stephen, sorry for the long delay in replying. I rarely look at this blog these days but it’s nice to know someone still is. It was something I undertook in 2010 but sadly I have done little blogging or walking since then. Surprisingly, the section on Fen dialect words seems to have attracted quite a lot of interest…keep walking
I came across your blog whilst searching for a definition of ‘elting soil’ in John Clare’s ‘November’. I’ll follow it with interest – we seem to be similar sorts of walkers. Thankyou.
