'The mass trespass on Kinder Scout, in which 400 ramblers walked onto the plateau in defiance of the landowner, the Duke of Devonshire, was the key catalyst of the Right to Roam movement and the establishment of the National Parks.' Commissioned by the artist Paul Evans for the '7 Wonders' exhibition at the Cupola Gallery, Sheffield, spring 2010. This poem accompanies the drawings and paintings titled 'Downfall'.
