Legends of Bonchurch takes place at Bonchurch on Monday 5 October. Set aside 90 minutes; the published start is 10:00 and the finish 11:30.
The guide meets walkers by the bench near Bonchurch Shute for 90 minutes of local legends and stories. The village lanes and older buildings supply the setting, with the emphasis on tales attached to a small corner of south Wight. A bench near Bonchurch Shute marks the modest starting point for stories that have outgrown their original streets. The guide can test each tale against the buildings and corners attached to it. Bonchurch gathers pond, old churches, wooded lanes and literary associations above the coast near Ventnor. A short walk can cross several layers of south Wight history without leaving the village.
The 10:00 walk costs from £15 and must be booked. Allow 90 minutes, with the group due to finish at 11:30. The meeting point is the bench near Bonchurch Shute rather than a staffed venue, so identify it before the morning. The source does not publish distance, hills or access details for the village route. More Island walking events offer mapped mileage if that matters. Choose this one for storytelling in a compact place, where the lanes themselves help each legend make sense.
