Artist-researchers Verity Birt and Una Hamilton Helle are on a search for Deep England, asking what the term means and where to find it? To help them on their journey they speak to artists, writers, musicians and academics whose research and practices broaden the pastoral picture. In this episode they speak to broadcaster, DJ and writer Zakia Sewell, whose podcast series My Albion was a quest for the more mystical and inclusive side of England. They also go on a journey through deep time with paleontologist Angharad Jones and experimental vocal trio CRONE (Blue Firth, Freya Barlow and Isabel Jones) through the caves of Creswell Crags.

In it we will be invited to do some limited movement, as well as create some responses to the journey with our hands. For this you will need some material to make with; a candle, (a beezewax candle if possible), a bowl of water, a ball of thread of any thickness, a needle that you can thread the thread into, and a stick or a root the length of your handspan found in a special place.

The Limitless Field is a radiophonic space, a dream, an active dismantling of borders and a redrawing of lines. Emerging from worlds within this world, we take up ploughs, drawing new lines between traditions and acts of resistance. We travel through winter customs and traditions, stopping at points of misrule and role reversal. Our lines draw new relations, not of upwards power, but of lines that draw across to support and empower. We dismantle the field's borders, and begin our limitless dreaming.
