Notes
1 Pope's ‘Memorial Walks' project involved a series of writers memorizing a scene from a landscape painting in galleries in Norwich and Lincoln, and recalling this while walking in nearby open country. I participated in the Lincolnshire project. Pope documented the project through images and audio in the gallery, online at http://www.waterlog.fvu.co.uk/simonpope/ and in a book acting as ‘a “field guide” to the seventeen different walks' (Pope Citation2008: back cover).
2 Belbury Poly's The Owl's Map was released in 2006 on the Ghost Box label, catalogue number GBX007 CD.
3 For a geographical engagement with the hauntological, the spectral and the ghostly, see the 2008 special issue of Cultural Geographies 15(3), with an editorial by Joanne Maddern and Peter Adey and articles by Holloway and Kneale, Edensor, Matless and Maddern.
4 St Benet's was the most powerful of medieval Broadland monasteries, its ruined gatehouse now accompanied by an eighteenth-century millstump, the whole having been a favoured subject of the nineteenth-century Norwich School of landscape painters.
