Richard Skelton spent nearly half a decade living in a small valley
high in the Furness hills of Cumbria, in northern England. When not
writing or composing music, most of his days were spent beating the
valley's bounds, exploring its network of paths, streams and walls.
Beyond the Fell Wall is a distillation of his observations and
thoughts about this particular patch of land. It is a poetic
enquiry into the life of an seemingly inanimate landscape - its
otherwise unheard melodies and unseen movements. It considers both
vast geological epochs and brief moments of intimacy, and in turn
it asks us to consider sentience in all things, whether animal,
vegetable or mineral. At the heart of the book is the fell wall
itself: vast and serpentine - a vessel for the lives, voices and
myths of the landscape.
