The Ring of Brodgar is the subject of the latest episode of the Stone Me podcast and features Professor Jane Downes, director of the UHI Archaeology Institute.

Stone Me is a podcast by Matthew Magee investigating Scotland’s oldest places. To create the series, Matthew got on his bike and travelled around the country, visiting sites and talking to the archaeologists and experts involved.

Matthew was in Orkney in April, where he met Professor Jane Downes at the stone circle. Earlier in the day he spent a morning with Ness of Brodgar site director Nick Card for an episode dedicated to the Neolithic complex.
