This is the first dedicated study of the tales, customs and traditional lore of Peterborough and its environs. Peterborough is rich in medieval legends, from glimpses of ancient beliefs shrouded in the pagan past like the 'Wild Hunt' seen in 1127, to unwise dealings between abbots and the devil, and strange reports of miracles. However, traditional beliefs lingered in the 'City of the Fens' well into modern times. Peterborough Folklore offers a fascinating insight into the historic beliefs and culture of the city's inhabitants. It features holy wells, unofficial folk saints, colourful local festivals, unquiet revenants, ghost-hunting vicars, the ever-present fear of witchcraft - and much more.
