Folk-a-Dilly Tales
Here we tell folk tales in three different ways, based mostly on stories we have found over the years. These can be true tales or legends from the past. Some are murder stories, some are ghost stories and some relate to historic characters with intriguing tales.
Told verbally as a story, with poems and music to enhance the story telling experience. This is an epic podcast!
Folk-a-Dilly Tales
Alice's strange gravestone
In Martham, Norfolk, there is a small church called St Mary the Virgin dating back to 1377. In this church, leaning against the wall are the grave stones of Alice and Chris Burroway. The inscription on Alice's tombstone is one of the strangest ever found. It reads 'Here lieth Alice, she was by her name, my sister, my mistress, my mother, my wife.'
The song was 'Oops, Vicar, I married me son' by Zingaro Blue
