To know a pond is some 30-foot at its deepest, has a surface area of nearly 12 hectacres is thing. To know it has pike another. However, only with a layer of folkloric knowing comes the wisdom and wonder that it's home to a Stay Below. – #CLNolan #Folklore

A lyre, a ballad and a sunny garden… Death of Queen Jane (Child 170, Roud 77) tells of Jane Seymour’s death following the birth of Prince Edward VI. A tender, mournful mix of history & artistic imagination 🖤 #DearhOfQueenJane
