Investigating Scotland’s oldest places
Stone Me podcast
Did you know that there is a cosmic lightshow put on by a massive moon that only happens once every 18.6 years at a 5,000 year old holy place at the north west tip of Scotland’s most remote western island? Or that a farmer’s plough striking a stone just 20 years ago led to ancient finds that have caused the country’s most ancient history to be rewritten?
Matthew Magee didn’t, until he got on his bike and rode (and sailed, and travelled by train) to some of Scotland’s most glamorous, exciting and important neolithic sites to interview experts on the secrets of our oldest places.
Get a taste of what's to come in this introduction to the first series of Stone Me.
