This photographic exhibition documents the landscape at Lindow Moss; the mysterious place where the preserved body of Lindow Man was found.The photographer, Stephen Vaughan grew up next to Lindow Moss in the 1970s and 1980s and returned in 2000 to make an extensive four year photographic document of this dramatic landscape. The resulting exhibition was nominated for the Santa Fe Prize for Photography in 2005. "For me, the vivid representation of the 'place of finding' is vital in order to connect the body to its original resting place. My photographs aim to provide a definitive and rich record of the landscape of Lindow Man's deposit and discovery." Stephen Vaughan
