This peatlands walk leads to a bothy screening of the film Layerscape, created collaboratively by Harrington with Sarah Bouttell, Debbie Bower and sound artist Lee Patterson. Layerscape is a slow, immersive journey filmed over a year and inspired by the decomposition and layering of vegetation over thousands of years. The film explores vast and different peatlands from the uplands and blanket bogs of Allendale and Killhope to the ancient border mires in Kielder forest, observing the shifting and passing of time and viewing the power of nature to heal itself in multiple ways. Developed in collaboration with The North Pennines AONB Partnership.
Supported by VARC and Arts Council England. The walk and screening at Moor House Nature Reserve has been made possible by the support of Natural England.
A bus will be provided to take people from Newcastle to the site. This will depart at 11:00 and will return at approximately 17:00. People can make their own way to Garrigill, near Alston to meet one of the mini buses provided that will take you to Moor House. Booking is still essential as places on the mini buses are limited and no other vehicular access to the site is permitted. Further information will be emailed once you are booked on the event.
