This site has been developed by groups in three villages in North Yorkshire. We have recorded in Terrington, Rosedale and the villages around the ruins of Byland Abbey. Samples of dialect, ambient sounds, poetry, story, music and song are available via this site. CDs have been produced for each area. Groups of people have been trained in recording and their edited files in whole or in part are placed on this site. Copies of all the material are also being placed in the county archive in Northallerton.

The recordings (mp3) are available to listen to on the recordings pages. If you are interested in any of the tracks that are not on a CD already then please contact us for more information using the contact form below. The third CD for the Byland area is in production now and will be available in July 2008. As funding becomes available there will be another dealing with the industrial archeology and geology of Rosedale. Any community interested in recording a sound picture of their area is welcome to contact us.
