Linda Sever has a book coming out soon which sounds really interesting.
It's called:
Lancashire's Sacred Landscape: From Prehistory to the Viking Age
Edited by Linda Sever.
It includes a gazetteer of prehistoric sites in Lancashire, a list of pre-Christian place-names and their meanings (this chapter is by Sara Vernon, who did a talk on this subject at the Moot prior to completing this chapter), information on Anglo Saxon and Viking age stone sculptures, and where to find them - and a tour of local fairy and boggart sites. Other contributors include Nick Ford (Ribchester), Aidan Turner-Bishop (Fairy and Boggart Sites), John Lamb (Gazetteer of Prehistoric Sites), Heather Rawlin-Cushing and Derek Berryman (Norse Myths in Stone)
Please email the publishers to find out when the book is coming out - Linda says that the more people mither them about it, the sooner it will be published. You can get in touch with them at sales@thehistorypress.co.uk
