Time between Times Storytelling with Owen StatonThe Wonder of the Wollaton Gnomes There are places in Britain where the world feels… softer. Thinner. As though reality itself loosens its grip just enough for something older — something stranger — to slip through.On a September evening in 1979, in the shadowed woods of Wollaton Park, a group of children stumbled into just such a moment.What they encountered has never been explained.Tiny figures. No taller than a child’s knee.Pointed hats. Long white beards.And impossibly… small, silent cars gliding through the twilight.They came in numbers. Dozens of them.Moving like a procession from another world.Watching. Playing. Chasing.For fifteen minutes, the ordinary world slipped away.And when it returned… nothing was ever quite the same again.In this episode, we step into the hush of evening, into the smell of wet earth and the deepening shadows, and we ask:What did those children really see? Was this imagination… or encounter and why do stories of “little people” echo across centuries of British folklore?This is not just a story.It is a glimpse… into the time between times.www.welshstoryteller.comKo- fi www.ko-fi.com/owenstatonpatreon - www.patreon.com/owenstaton7EnjoyOwen x
