**Ley of the Land** Walking artist research residency in partnership with @hannahearlfilm @little_buckland_gallery @heaps_morris @eveshamrambling #cotswolds Day 06 walking from the Greedy Goose (derelict) to the #rollrightstones meeting @heaps_morris for a magical highlight - Morris Dancers dancing with Walkers inside the ancient stone circle #thekingsmenstonecircle ‘Ley of the Land’ reflects upon, interprets and reimagines our contemporary connections and disconnections with the lands we inhabit and the cultural and folk traditions we arise from and have maybe lost. Working towards an exhibition @little_buckland_gallery in September - it will be a joyful celebration of The Cotswolds themselves and of past, present and future environmental uncertainties. We hope to honour the growing reputation of the area for pioneering regenerative farming methods and deepen land connections. We have searched for Witness Trees and other remnants of historical land interventions. We have rambled within the ancient Cotswolds Circular Ley. Our walking routes have taken us through: Wyck Rissington, Bourton-on-the-Water, Condicote, the Swells and Slaughters, Broadway Tower and The Rollright Stones amongst other places. We walked along sections of the old Ryknild Street, Fosse Way and Roman Roads and crossed and felt Ley Lines. Thank you to everybody who has helped, participated and collaborated. More to come….. Thanks to @hannahearlfilm for the final dancing feet video

Finally finished sewing. She is ready to dance with @heaps_morris artfully modelled by @lottebutcher head by @nataliemfinch
