Poetry Place graphic

Poet Sue Dymoke led a series of online workshops with local people to create poetry inspired by old photographs of the Sherwood Forest area from the Inspire Picture Archive. See the fascinating results in this exhibition, touring libraries until 2023.

Poetry Place was made possible thanks to funding from the Miner2Major Landscape Partnership Scheme, supported by The National Lottery Heritage Fund.
