This autumn Trelissick will be hosting a series of talks celebrating Cornish figures and heritage. ‘Dark Tales of Cornish Smuggling will be presented by ‘The Piskie Trap’ podcast host Keith Wallis and include a two-course lunch.
Join podcast host Keith Wallis for this talk delving into the murkier side of Cornwall’s past as we explore tales of smugglers, from stories of secret tunnels leading to the sea, rumours of murder, revenge and haunted pubs, to daring exploits and battles on beaches.
Keith Wallis is host of The Piskie Trap - a podcast series exploring the folklore, history and legends from across Cornwall. His recent work has involved a number of collaborations with leading historians, writers, folklorists and storytellers, as part of a movement to preserve local folklore traditions, and to promote Cornish history and heritage
