THE ZINES
The result of this project is four zines, each one an experience and exploration of a different place: Silverdale, Malham, Great Langdale and Chwarel Dinorwig. They were printed in Leeds on a paper made 100% from agricultural waste (products from crop farming that would otherwise be burnt).
Below is each zine and the links to various online research sources for each one. Find more books and resources in the Landing Library
All four zines have a free full PDF scan available - click the PDF link and then click the download icon for higher quality viewing and download options.
