Entrances and Exits

Available for over a year

The land at Soulton Hall near Wem in Shropshire has been farmed by the same family for centuries, but over the last couple of years there have been two new additions to its landscape: a long barrow and an amphitheatre. Caz Graham visits the farm to find out what has inspired their creation. She meets Tim Ashton, who was the driving force behind them both, and hears how the outdoor performance space proved invaluable for the National Youth Theatre during last year's lockdown. Inside the cool and peaceful barrow, she meets a widow who has decided that it will be the final resting place for her husband's ashes. Presenter: Caz Graham Producer: Emma Campbell
