Silence on Boars Hill

Apr 22, 2020, 09:14 PM

Oxford lockdown sound recorded by Cities and Memory. 

"Oxford is surrounded by green spaces, small villages and quiet spots, which have become even quieter during lockdown. This recording is from a wild garden called Jarn Mound in a small village called Boars Hill. It's a moment of peace - having cycled for half an hour to reach this tranquil spot, it's the most peaceful moment of my entire week, so I reach for the recorder to share it with you."
