Episode Description
Deep in the remote Cornish village of Zennor stands St Senara’s Church, home to one of Britain’s most famous pieces of folklore — the medieval Mermaid Chair.
For centuries, local legend has claimed a mysterious woman became entranced by the singing of a young church chorister before leading him beneath the sea at nearby Pendour Cove, still known today as Mermaid’s Cove.
In this episode of Ghost Tales by the Fireside, we explore the real history of the church, the origins of the famous carving, and the folklore that still surrounds Cornwall’s Atlantic coastline.
Music by Clem Dallaway — “Among the Graves”
