I am an academic and writer based in Scotland, and Honorary Research Fellow at the University of Liverpool. My areas of interest are literature, landscape, and the history of place.
Most recently I have been working with colleague Simon Coleman on ‘Heathfield Down’,  as the lost location of the Battle of Hastings.
Please get in touch if you would like me to research a place or past event. Previous commissions include essays, prayers, song lyrics, and family history. You can find examples of my writing in ‘Elsewhere: a journal of place’, and by following the links above to my Portfolio.
