ABSTRACT Peatlands have often been represented in cultural material as being dangerous and inhospitable places, partly based on post-medieval influences, but also partly based on elements of folklore which emphasise the ‘other-worldly’ and liminal nature of these environments. Using Ilkley Moor, West Yorkshire, as a case study, the role of heritage, folklore and cultural media in guiding perceptions of the landscape is explored. Contemporary society is more diversified than historic situations, and our review indicates that perceptions of heritage landscapes reflect this complexity. The use of the peatland by different groups is explored, before addressing the interconnected roles of folklore and archaeology in past, present and future engagement with this landscape.

充满意义：泥炭地、遗产和民俗

摘要泥炭地在文化材料中经常被描述为危险和荒凉的地方，部分基于后中世纪的影响，但部分基于强调这些环境“超凡脱俗”和阈限性质的民间传说元素。以西约克郡的 Ilkley Moor 作为案例研究，探索了遗产、民俗和文化媒体在引导景观感知方面的作用。当代社会比历史情况更加多样化，我们的评论表明对遗产景观的看法反映了这种复杂性。在解决民俗学和考古学在过去、现在和未来与这一景观接触中的相互关联作用之前，探索了不同群体对泥炭地的使用。
