Stone Watch 2025
James takes Alasdair on a whistle-stop tour of Britain’s mobile stones, as catalogued in Janet and Colin Bord’s The Secret Country. These standing stones were made for walking, and that’s just what they’ll do. Except when they’re spinning around on the spot. Or not moving at all.
Plus, we answer the questions no other podcast would dare ask:
- Do stones grow? (No)
- Should you go in a Piper’s Hole? (No)
- Do stones respect / understand Daylight Savings? (We don’t know)
Catch James on the Stone Watch 2025 livestream on YouTube.
