This talk accompanies our 2026 exhibition ‘Myths, Monuments and Memory’ and explores the myths and legends associated with the landscape of the Uffington White Horse, from St. George and the Dragon to the legend of Weland the Smith.
Telling the story of how landscape reuse conveys meaning across centuries, it highlighted enduring beliefs and showed how personal, family, and community events continue to enrich this evolving narrative.
