SIR GAWAIN AND THE GREEN KNIGHT - THE MYTH’S CONNECTION TO STAFFORDSHIRE MOORLANDS
The Gawain poet's detailed descriptions of the landscape strongly suggest that the myth was inspired by real places in the Staffordshire Moorlands. It is believed that he was a monk at Dieulacres Abbey and that the Green Chapel is based on Lud's Church, a deep chasm in the forest in the north of the Moorlands. The original text is also written in North Staffordshire dialect.
The Queer Quest adventure takes place in these real-world settings, connecting the legendary journey to the very landscape where the great myth is set.
A self guided adventure. Follow the ticket link to the on line trail.
