In 2013 a group of writers and poets set up The Clearing, an online journal for new writing about nature and place, from new and established writers.
The aim was to create a dedicated space to explore and celebrate landscapes, finding distinctive and sometimes startling visions of place: rural, urban, suburban, industrial, post-industrial, fantastical and natural. Going to Ground showcases some of the best and most distinctive writing from The Clearing’s archive of hundreds of essays and poetry. Its themes are natural, political, historical, archaeological, ecological, scientific, personal, urgent and true, from more than thirty extraordinary writers.
