Echoes of the Back Forest

*Echoes of the Back Forest* is a dark, atmospheric song inspired by the poem from Mow Cop: A Poet’s Sanctuary by *Stephen Smith**. Rooted in the ancient landscape of **Lud’s Church* and the **Back Forest**, the lyrics draw on folklore, memory, and the quiet weight of history that clings to stone and shadow.

This song explores the haunting presence of place — where moss-covered rock, whispered prayers, and half-forgotten rebels still linger in the air. Lud’s Church is not just a setting, but a witness: to faith hidden from the crown, to footsteps echoing through centuries, and to anyone who dares enter with more than curiosity.

A meditation on nature, myth, and remembrance, Echoes of the Back Forest invites you to tread lightly, listen closely, and leave something of yourself at the threshold.
