How does a stone circle built in living memory become the stuff of legend for community who watched it being laid?

In 1979 North Glasgow, a stone circle was dropped on Sighthill by helicopter for the whole community to see. These new, astronomically aligned stones sat on top of chemical waste and other debris in an area defined by the industrial boom and bust years.

Not only is it one of the most unlikely places you’d expect to see a stone circle, within just a few years it became revered as a place of magic and memorial, as a sacred place to escape to.

This a story not just about urban regeneration but one of the power of imagination and the human need for meaningful connections to physical places.
