Jon Gower on Mynydd Preseli


Thanks to Tony for alerting me to this -- one of a series of "essays" on the mountains of Wales by Jon Gower.  This one is about Mynydd Preseli  -- pleasant listening -- rather poetic and whimsical -- but interestingly enough, his whimsy does not go so far as to accept the myth of the human transport of the bluestones to Stonehenge.  He prefers the glacial transport idea, so sound science clearly does have some value, even for non-scientists........

The 14 minute talk can be accessed on BBC Sounds, and you can listen on your computer just by signing in.
