Sound walk
For over a decade, I spent days and weeks in the uninspiring suburb of Belmont, Hereford, while visiting my partner’s family. When I started walking further afield, I found places full of humour and pathos.

What happens when you explore a landscape extensively, while not wanting to be there? On this audio walk, listeners are guided through corners of Belmont that are uncanny, strange and banal.
