Description
Recordings of birdsong, weather and working life made across the Northwest by a civil engineer.
Provenance
Rescued from a skip outside a former office in Riverbridge Springs. The tape was sticky with binder breakdown and was baked at low temperature before a single careful read. All of the work survives. The repairs are listed in the record’s damage map.
