Stone Lands with Fiona Robertson

From the folkloric stone circles of the Lands End to the windswept silvery giants of the Isle of Lewis, Britain is full of marvellous ancient places. Sharing photos from her many megalith-hunting trips, Fiona speculates about the motivations of the ancient builders as well as exploring the profound appeal the stones still exert on us today, from their enchanting legends to the way they act as metaphors for our own strength and endurance. She talks about her personal story, explaining how these incredible survivals from prehistory have offered her a source of joy and inspiration, as well as providing solace in the very worst of times.

Well be serving tea and coffee at this event but if youd prefer something more alcoholic bring your own bottle well provide the glasses!
