Welcome to Episode 34 of the Podcast, and the final episode of Year 2.
Launching into the podcast, I first of all deal with some project housekeeping, then delve into the County Durham tale of the Sockburn Worm/Sockburn Falchion - perhaps the oldest of the 'dragon' tales from North East England. After that, I tell Brockie's 1886 tale of the ghosts of Nicky Nack Field, then turn to a 'real ghost story' told in the Saturday 27th September 1902 edition of the Sunderland Daily Echo and Shipping Gazette - I apologise in advance to the residents of Shotton Colliery for this one - before finishing with an introduction to the new Within the Boggart Wood Bare Bones Project.
