249. Welsh language and landscape with Julie Brominicks

Enter Rivendell – or what might as well be – a hidden valley on the edge of Eryri (Snowdonia) in North Wales. Plodcast host Fergus takes a nature ramble with the writer Julie Brominicks who lives off-grid with her partner here in a caravan beside a magical stream.

Julie is a passionate advocate for the Welsh language and explains how it is interwoven with the landscape, nature and the rural culture of Wales.

Produced by Jack Bateman and Lewis Dobbs. Music written and performed by Blair Dunlop.
