Afternoon Play: The Making of the EnglishLandscape

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

An ancient ditch, a new airport, a railway surveyor who gets shot at, as well as a chase across country and through time - Jonathan Davidson 's play is inspired by WG Hoskins's book, which imagines how the land itself has felt through centuries of being ploughed up, deep-mined and built on. Producer/Director Tim Dee
