Full description

Join us on Wednesday 17th June for an evening in conversation with Wyl Menmuir, as we turn our attention to the landscapes beneath our feet.

From ancient monuments and drystone walls to caves, quarries and rugged coastlines, Wyl explores the ways stone shapes not only the world around us, but our histories, identities and sense of belonging. Bringing together travel writing, memoir, folklore and social history, it is a thoughtful meditation on our relationship with place and a fitting conclusion to a remarkable trilogy that has taken readers from sea, to woodland, and now to stone.

We can’t wait to talk with Wyl about the book and the questions it asks about how we live with, understand and care for the landscapes that surround us.
