In Britain & Ireland’s Best Wild Places Christopher Somerville takes us a journey of discovery, spanning their length & breadth as he seeks out 500 of his favourite Wild Places in fields & green lanes, in forests & mountains & on lonely coasts, in all of nature`s moods & every kind of weather. Britain & Ireland`s Best Wild Places is the key to discovering Scottish mountainsides covered in rare Ice Age flowers, Cornish standing stones & holy wells, Midlands wildflower meadows, storm-battered Welsh headlands & seabird islands, hill ranges & boglands in Ireland where only hares & skylarks go. But this adventurous book roams far beyond conventional landscapes. Among its wild treasures are medieval Green Men spewing mouthfuls of leaves, the ruins of haunted chapels deep in forgotten woods, old mines & quarries being recaptured by nature, villages where pagan rituals are still enthusiastically observed, rusting sea-forts tottering on sandbanks. Each Wild Place is enhanced with mapping & travel instructions, suggestions about walks & other useful information. Britain & Ireland are crammed full of wild places, often astonishingly close to home. Here is one man`s poetical yet practical account of the state of the Wild in Britain & Irel&, how it is being both threatened & nurtured, & how
- whether you are heading out for a Sunday stroll or planning your next holiday
- you can go out & discover it in all its extraordinary vigour & variety.
