Michael Finocchiaro asked Rebecca Gransden:

Where is Holligoss Hill? What does this location evoke for you?

Rebecca Gransden Hi Michael,

Thanks for your question and for reading Rusticles. All the locations of Hilligoss are an amalgam of how I remember the landscapes I grew up with and an imagined extension of them. Breakneck Hill, as featured in Rusticles, is a real place and where I used to catch the bus to and from college everyday. There is a lot of folklore associated with it, starting with the name and its rumoured historical connection as the spot of a gallows.
