Why We Love Gold Hill and the Story of How Anglotopia Got Started
This week in the Anglotopia Podcast, we tell two inter-related stories - why I'm so obsessed with Gold Hill in Shaftesbury Dorset and how that led to the creation of Anglotopia. The story starts in the late '90s and goes until 2011 and it has many interesting twists and turns. If you've ever wondered why Anglotopia exists and what our hopes and dreams with it are - this podcast is for you. And apologies - it goes over 1 hour. For reference - here is the actual poster I talk about in the Podcast. I still have it after all these years, despite having hundreds of my own pictures of Gold Hill now.
