About this listen

This old oak tree standing at the foot of the South Downs in Southern England has a strange tale of skeletons rising up from its roots at midnight on Midsummers Eve.
I traced the story back to its origins and also learn about the power of stories to affect a place.

There is music in this episode from Crayola Lectern:

The rest of the music is provided kindly by Adrien Rhodes.

If you'd like a copy of the Monument Zine, which develops the theme of Trees as markers of place, crime and culture then please visit the Monument Podcast website:
https://monumentpodcast.com/shop.html

You can also find an animation I've made about the story, and additional material related to the Broadwater Oak.
