Explore Wildward

Field notes from the wilder Britain.

Wild food, overlooked landscapes, archaeology, folklore and natural history — each one researched before it becomes a story.

A chalk valley shaped by ice, occupied for thousands of years, and wrapped in one of Sussex's strangest legends.

Twisted upland oaks, prehistoric traces and a woodland so fragile that the best way to experience it is from outside.

Small, tart and brilliant for jelly — but identification means looking at the whole tree, not just a tiny apple.
