Seeking common land in Wales, I find Wyn, who was once a coal miner, like the men of my own past family. He shows me his lunch tin, shaped to the loaf and battered from years of being carried underground. A little relic in an old man's garage.

A common land year Exploring the many lives of Britain's common lands.

Over on my blog, I've started a monthly chronicle of my encounters with Britain's #commonland.

In January we find out what common land is, bust some myths, speak of #JohnClare and hear about the lands I have lost.

Night Walk, Twelfth Night I’ve been up before dawn every day of the past week, watching a the moon turn the snow and ice on the common into a glittering land.

My musings on common land, the wildlife around my Norfolk home, my night walks and the state of the world continue on Substack - take a look if you have time.

Night walk 2 I sought out the comfort of the horses on the common tonight, the warmth of their breath and their whiskery noses, curious on my palms.

The dark months are back and I can walk at night without having to stay up late. Here's another night walk on my Substack, featuring Dolly and little Daisy her foal.

Myddfai Common in autumn sun, an old track vanished beneath gorse, only the lichen covered signpost still shows the way. Local herbalists once gathered their plants here, their lore handed down from a faery. The golden light and disappearing path makes all this believable.

After urban botanising in the morning, retreated to a lovely wet woodland LNR on Ynys Môn. A lovely Dryopteris understory (all the affinis group) plus a established garden throw outs including a Western Sword fern!

Our friends at Kairos are hosting a series on the Commons. The first talk, given by Guy Standing, explores how we may revive, and best nurture, our common land. More info here www.kairos.london/event/revivi...

Be mindful it’s nearly full. Hope to see some of you there:

Campaigners call for right to roam on edges of private farmland in England Group says people in rural areas have to walk on roads without pavement, which can be very dangerous

We need the right to roam, full stop. Fuck the landowners and the medieval set-up we still have in the UK. If it can happen in Scotland, it can happen here. This crap has been going on for centuries since our land was stolen in the enclosures.
