Events 2022

Mr Time and Miss Tide are two tale-tellers who lead a series of Time Walks, Story Walks and Storytelling Events around Bristol and beyond.

They have combined their extensive experience in the worlds of story, archaeology, leading groups and walks to provide an imaginative engagement with the sense of place. Blending myth, legend, history and pure invention, for this is what turns an anonymous public space in to a place with meaning. 




Time Walks - in town and country are an exploration of a landscape's history and archaeology, with some stories and folk tales.

Story Walks - focus on the tales and legends, with a bit of history.
