Ghost stories told by lamplight, curious village customs, half-forgotten ballads and beliefs: The Monthly Chronicle Of North-Country Lore And Legend 1887 opens a door into everyday wonder in Victorian Northern England. This British folklore periodical 1887 gathers reports, essays and notes on Northern England legends and lore, creating a living portrait of streets, fields and shorelines at a moment of rapid change. These pages remember the North. As an antiquarian local history volume and English county folklore collection in serial form, it ranges across regional customs and traditions, curious superstitions, local sayings, notable places and personalities. Blending English regional folklore stories with serious inquiry into civic and church records, it stands as both an evocative read and a reference for folklore researchers and a resource for local historians exploring 19th century Northern England. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. For casual readers drawn to Victorian atmosphere, students of Victorian Northern England history, and collectors of North-Country lore and legend, this Victorian folklore journal collection offers an authentic, carefully reproduced glimpse into how communities once described themselves, their past and their everyday marvels.
