‘Household Lore: Folklore, Traditions and Remedies for Every Room in Your Home’, Liza Frank
Did you know when you move into a new home, you should sprinkle salt on the threshold, and let the cat go in first? Did you know that decorating a house with sea shells gives evil spirits somewhere to live, or that a houseleek planted on the roof will protect you from lightning strikes?
Come along to enjoy this fascinating talk with demonstrations, in which every room tells a story and every seemingly mundane corner holds a weird and wonderful secret.
Thursday 4th December, 6-7 p.m.,
