England ... it is sylvan, unpredictable, sublime, originative and contradictory - a land of eccentricity and ingenuity, a mix of worlds, practices and lifestyles all enriched and enlivened by an enthrallingly complex past. Travel here and discover more than you thought possible - and that defining Englishness is a daunting task indeed.
This is a magazine about forests, crags and drystone walls; about culinary daring, crumbling ruins and journeys into the wild. It is an ode to literary histories and a smuggling past, coastal towns and cultural capitals. Recalling long forgotten giants and lingering lore, this is our homage to England and the verve that makes it eternal.
Every issue, our glorious contributors send us through the most amazing work - words, illustrations and photographs that fill us with wanderlust and remind us exactly why we make Lodestars Anthology. However, we never seem to have enough pages to run all the word that we would like to … and so thought we would share some unpublished gems here!
