For anyone that missed it Radio 4's 'Excess baggage' 11 Feb 2012 featured some interesting discussions on the pilgramage theme around standing stones. Podcast here;

Thanks for that VBB, I've just listened to most of it. About eight minutes in Martin Symington talks about stone circles and 'sacred' stone places (Karl Marx's tomb gets a mention as well). Book looks good Sacred Britain though has been covered by many other writers from John Michell to Paul Devereaux.



Martin features Twickenham as 'sacred' - puts things in perspective I feel.

He also champions the Neasden temple, and he doesn't mean where Twiggy grew up.
