About the project...

Founded in October 2020, The Local Mythstorian is a multi-media project dedicated to exploring the extraordinary local histories of Cheshire, Derbyshire and Staffordshire. Born from one man's personal passion (or obsessive hobby) for local folklore and legend - or more specifically, his quest to uncover the real histories which lie at the heart of their inspiration - the pr0ject looks to present original content based on fresh historical research, with a view to providing new and unique insight into the strange and curious tales we find anchored throughout our landscape. Primarily a literary endeavour at present, a podcast series is also in the works for later in 2022. 

You can read our original features here and if you enjoy them, please consider becoming a member and you'll get access to a suite of members only content including PDF downloads, audio files and more than 30 local works on history from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries!
