Welcome to the first episode of the Olney Town Podcast. Nicholas speaks with folklorist Adam Sargant and the Trustee of the Cowper Newton Museum, Tom Jones.&nbsp;
We explore the history of the towns Devilore and why the devil chose Olney as his home for so many years. Most of the devil stories are linked to a semi historical pair of books written around the turn of the century by Oliver Ratcliff. We try and dissect as many of those stories as we can.&nbsp;
