To many people, Tindale seems like a quiet, out-of-the-way sort of place. Yet, there are historical markers in the local landscape that hint at there being much, much more. There are ancient stones, a lord’s hunting forest, medieval sites,  remains of mineral industries, railways, and the village itself. Nancy’s talk will be a whistle-stop tour of these key elements from her book Tindale -  A Sense of Place.

Nancy moved to Tindale in 1982. As soon as she arrived, she was told that Stephenson's Rocket used to be kept here to work on the railway line just beyond the bottom of the garden. Since then, she has been gently peeling back the layers of history in the landscape.
