Positioned thousands of years ago and steeped in mystery and folklore, the stones stand for endurance and survival, offering light in times of darkness.Fiona Robertson is a writer, editor and a long-time megalith enthusiast who has been seeking out standing stones all her adult life. She'll be discussing all-things Stone Lands with Margate-based writer Ryan J. Smith.
