On this week's episode of The Three Ravens Podcast, Eleanor and Martin gallop to Westmoreland, a western part of Cumbria.

With the episode released on St Arnulf's Day, they discuss his wolf-hampered hermitude and life of drink, then hop onto horseback to explore the history and folklore of Westmoreland - from Kendal Mint Cake and the curse of Calgarth Hall to the malicious fairies of the Old Man of Coniston, the secret lake of Podnet Tarn, the mythic tragedy of Aira Force Fells, and much more besides. Then it's time for the main event: Eleanor's telling of "The Witch of Westmoreland."
