New Forest Myths and Folklore by Brice Stratford

The New Forest is an old, old forest. The stories, like the forest which defines them, are at once fresh and blossoming with each telling, but ever rooted in the deep, dark soil of our history and our heritage. From King Arthur and Robin Hood, to Rufus the Red and Bevis of Hampton, award-winning storyteller Brice Stratford guides you through the folk heritage and mythological past of Britain's most haunted national park, taking in five headed dragons, giant ettins, and shape-shifting pixies along the way.
BRICE STRATFORD is an actor, storyteller, theatre director and local historian. He was born and raised in the New Forest. He currently stands on the Lyndhurst Parish Council, and is especially active in local heritage projects. His theatre company Owle Schreame has won numerous awards and his work has been featured in local, national, industry and international media. A regular fixture at folk and fright events across the country, writes regularly on culture, history, architecture and the arts for the Critic, the Spectator, the British Theatre Guide and Apollo.
