The Three Hares Project

Posted in Events on Tuesday 16th February 2016 at 11:20pm

On a very chilly afternoon on Wednesday 10th February fifty-five people consisting of both Members and non-Members of the Dartmoor Society eagerly gathered in the Nicholls Hall, Lydford for a talk and and a visual presentation delivered by Dr Sue Andrew entitled “The Three Hares – A Curiosity Worth Regarding”.

This project involved our Chairman Dr Tom Greeves in conjunction with much famed local photographer Chris Chapman as well as Dr Sue Andrew herself of course.

Tom first came across the Three Hares motif fifty years ago and the quest for more information on this intriguing subject was born.

After Sue’s excellent presentation the audience had a chance to ask questions and then tea and coffee, sandwiches and homemade cake were served. Everyone agreed that it had been a truly absorbing afternoon.
