Weird Walk is a zine dedicated to the joys of walking.
As the creators describe it, walking is an act of 'active engagement with the British landscape and its lore'. This inaugural issue, published around the Beltane season of 2019, more than meets the brief: it includes, among many other contributions, an interview with an American writer while walking the South Downs Way, a pub crawl around the M42, and a walk around Avebury. Contents include:
- Dolmania: A Wander Around Lanyon Quoit
- Walking the Old Weird Albion: An Interview with Justin Hopper
- Being a Short Guide and Partial History of Flat Roofed Pubs
- Medieval Graffiti: An Interview with Matthew Chamption
- A Weird Walk Around Avebury: Portals, Prehistory and Pints
And many more! Here is the perfect zine for anyone who has ever savoured the joys of experiencing the land on foot.
