Folklore of the roan/rowan tree from an 1859 book owned by Alfred Cheesman. He notes he saw it used (probably!) for witchcraft protection at Monmouth in 1894. #MayDay
Hello again.
I found Lynda Jones work this morning whilst researching someone else. Monmouth is her home and she has good qualifications in Visual Art from the University of Wales. Lovely painting.
