Caerdroia Article : The Journal of Mazes and Labyrinths

We were absolutely delighted to be invited to write an article about the Restoration of Giant’s Castle Maze for the latest issue if Caerdroia: The Journal of Mazes and Labyrinths. Caerdroia journal - established in 1980 by labyrinth expert Jeff Saward - is the iconic resource for all things labyrinths and mazes, and we’re so excited to be included in it’s legendary pages.

Caerdroia: The Journal of Mazes and Labyrinths, est. 1980 - Issue 54.

Caerdroia - and Jeff’s companion website labyrinthos.net - has been a priceless resource for our labyrinth project, helping us to understand more about Scilly’s labyrinths and labyrinth lore more generally. Jeff has also been an incredibly generous and helpful support as we navigated the process of restoring Giant’s Castle Maze, and his enthusiasm for everything we discovered about the maze’s history was so encouraging.
