Please do a Pub Survey

Tuesday 3 June 2025

I'm studying a Masters in Folklore Studies at Uni of Hertfordshire and my dissertation topic is storytelling in English pubs. Would you be interested in taking part in my survey?

My aim is to research the cultural phenomenon of English pubs and the unique social environment that they foster, to determine how their oral histories are disseminated. For instance, can you think of a pub where a regular or landlord/landlady is considered legendary? Are there stories about them which have been told and retold through the years? Is there a particular pub you know of that has witnessed events too wild to be true?

If you're interested in taking part, please read the Consent and Participation Information Form in the survey and click 'yes' to continue to the questions. The link is here: https://forms.office.com/e/8tX4g94L6u

It should take approximately 15 minutes to complete, and if you're happy to be contacted again for a one-to-one interview you can leave your email address under the final question.

If you have any questions, please let me know. If you also know anyone else in the South Western CAMRA branch who would be interested in taking part, please do forward this on to them. I'm trying to cast my net as wide as possible!

Looking forward to hearing from you.

All the best, Kirsty Asher
