About the event

In ‘Stone Lands’, Fiona Robertson takes her readers on a deeply personal and poetic journey through Britain’s ancient megalithic sites.

Blending memoir, mythology and archaeology, she explores the enduring power of stone circles, burial chambers and standing stones as places of memory, mourning and connection.

As she travels the country with her young family, Fiona reflects on themes of loss, motherhood, and the search for belonging, grounding her experiences in the rich histories and folklore of the land.
