2 unusual facts about Duncton Wood


Duncton Wood

The eponymous wood itself is fictional, inspired by Wittenham Clumps and Wytham Woods (both near Oxford where the author was living when he wrote the first book) and borrowing its name from a village in West Sussex.

In the midst of these events is the birth and martyrdom of the Stone Mole, a focal messianic Christ figure named Beechen.
