The Hair on the Back of Your Neck

Some of the walled up sites

found in Ancoats hold a quite

unfathomable atmosphere. Later

we came to understand that

some of the sites were more

interesting and more significant

than others. What distinguished

particular sites above the others

was that something made the

hair on the back of your neck

stand on end, and didn’t fizzle

away either when they were

opened or when they were

sealed up. These particular sites

were more akin to a source than

a container. It is from these sites

that the Peeps emerged.
