We welcomed 2 guests on this weeks episode, Cat Frampton and Richard's mother A.A Prideaux.
Cat talks with Richard and Richard about the England Peat Map released in May 2025 and the problems and errors which have designated reservoirs, walls, hedges and rocky outcroppings as deep peat. We did record for a full hour with Cat, but due to technical issues it sadly only recorded Negus and Prideaux for the last 45 minutes and then blank space where once there was informative content from Cat. Don't worry - we'll invite her back on with a more stable connection!
For the second half of this episode Richard Prideaux interviews his mother about rural life in the 60s, 70s and 80s - they talk about the number of people, nature of community, poverty, and a few anecdotes from Richard's childhood.
CountrySlide is a podcast that looks at farming, conservation and life in the British countryside.
