Legends & Folklore of Nottinghamshire
Once upon a time our ancestors held
many strange beliefs and superstitions.
Huddled round their fires at night,
they would swap stories of witches,
fairies, ghosts and devils, and
recall legends about larger than life
characters from the past.

Nottinghamshire is world-famous
for its tales of Robin Hood. He may

about him owe a great deal to fairy
traditions and ancient pagan beliefs.
Robin Hood is only one of the
fascinating, larger than life characters
to be found in this book.
