26. Standing Stone Stories

20 min25 maj 2025

Om avsnittet

Lone standing stones are scattered all over the Scottish landscape, and although we will unfortunately never know why they were originally raised or what their meanings were, in this vacuum of understanding, local folklore arises and new stories are wrapped around these ancient stones.


Listen in to hear the lore swirling around Granny Kempock in Gourock, The Brahan seer’s links to the Clach an t-Seasaidh near Muir of Ord, the tragic story of the Clachan Ceann Ile on Islay, and the angry Njugal and the Asta Standing Stone in Shetland.
