The aim of this project was to find hidden pieces of glass that perhaps not many folk know about and bring them to a wider audience along with accompanying stories from the people who told us about their glass finds. Here is the result; the Glass Stories Trail. It is a circular route and you can start the trail at any point and visit as much or as little of it as you like. There are also suggestions of additional diversions that you can take away from the trail to see other things that, if incorporated into the trail route, would have made it a bit too big to do comfortably.
