Description

The Veiled Vale: Strange Tales from South Oxfordshire The Vale of the White Horse and the surrounding countryside of South Oxfordshire are steeped in thousands of years of legends, history, and mystery. This collection of stories brings together witches, monsters, ghosts, old legends, and modern-day tales of strange encounters with the unknown. From mildly curious to frighteningly inexplicable, The Veiled Vale is a treasure trove of fabulous folklore and modern mysteries. The book delves into the history of a young Wallingford girl who daubed a wall with her own tears, a family who encountered a UFO in Stanford-in-the-Vale, and a Highworth Squire's ghost who was banished to a barrel of cider. The Uffington White Horse also makes an appearance, with its own unique story to tell. Illustrated with the work of Peter Hay, The Veiled Vale is a fascinating exploration of the strange and unknown.
