Echoes Audio Walk: Shades of Forty Hall is a location-based poetry experience set within the grounds of Forty Hall Estate in Enfield. On September 27th, participants join a guided trail led by poet Anthony Fisher, moving between designated audio hotspots where recorded poems are played aloud via a portable speaker. Each poem is linked to a specific place in the landscape, creating a layered dialogue between the poetry and the historic environment of the estate.
The event immerses walkers in the voices of contemporary poets whose works respond to Forty Hall’s heritage and surroundings. This format combines artistic expression with spatial exploration, offering a unique way to engage with both literature and place. The walk forms part of the Enfield Poets Literary Festival, which highlights local and emerging writers alongside community celebration of poetry and creativity.
