On this week's episode of The Three Ravens Podcast, Martin and Eleanor journey to Cambridgeshire - and make a fuss about Peterborough for once!

After a brief chat about Dog Days and the portentous movements of the heavens, they dig into the flooded fenlands of Cambridgeshire and explore its history and folklore - from Flag Fen and The Round Church to tales of the Shug Monkey, The Lantern Men, Tom Hickathrift, and much more besides. Then it's time for the main event: Martin's telling of "Hereward The Wake."
