Bog Standard
Music and Storytelling. Bog Standard is the untold story of a tip off which led a rookie journalist to one of the most important archaeological finds of the 20th centre. It’s also a story about a magical place called Lindow Moss, two murders 15 hundred years apart, and how an ancient bog man became a 21st-century eco warrior.
This concert is supported by the Highlights Rural Touring Scheme.
