Merry Met virtual traveller and welcome to Stories Of The Sun, a limited series podcast created as a companion to the book ‘Stories Of The Sun’, published by The History Press and written by me Dawn Nelson an author and professional storyteller, and for the next eight Fridays we’ll be exploring the ‘Stories Of The Sun’.
In this last episode of this limited series podcast, I share with you, just a few of the things that did not quite make it into the book. Grab yourself a cuppa, find a comfy spot and come with me now for the last of my sunrise vigil.
Mentioned in this episode:
The Nef Clock - In The British Museum’s Clock Gallery
The 6000 year old Elm Leaf from The British Museum’s Stonehenge Exhibition
