  • More about Great North Wood


Long ago, Southern England was covered in forest, but it has been gradually cut back. Small patches remain amidst the suburban sprawl of South-East London. The history and magic of the ancient forest can still be felt in the place names Forest Hill, Honor Oak, and Norwood. Tim Birds psychogeographical work depicts how memories live on in the landscape of The Great North Wood.

Long ago, the entirety of Southern England was enveloped in a vast expanse of forest. However, as time passed, this woodland underwent a gradual reduction, yet remnants of it still persist amidst the urbanization of South-East London. A handful of ancient oaks stand resiliently amidst the residential developments, interspersed alongside railway lines and serving as landmarks on roundabouts. Even after the trees have vanished, the essence of the ancient forest and its rich history remain palpable. The place names themselves, such as Forest Hill, Honor Oak, and Norwood, bear witness to the tales of bandits, outlaws, and gypsies that once roamed within the forest's embrace. This graphic novel delves into the narratives of these captivating characters, and their lingering presence can sometimes be sensed when the urban hum subsides. Tim Birds psychogeographical work vividly portrays how memories endure within the landscape of The Great North Wood.
