The Countryman August 2023 issue - OUT OF STOCK

Simone Stanbrook-Byrne visits Buckfast to meet the monks who make the Abbey's tonic wine, while David E Norris enjoys sculptor Henry Moore's rural retreat, Hoglands in Hertfordshire. Heritage crafts are represented by thatcher Paul Lewis, hurdle/wattle maker Neil Parsons and rush weaver Felicity Irons. And of course, we have Nature aplenty, with the Red-Listed corn bunting and the pool frog, plus articles on the plane tree, wild service, and ling.
