1 00:00:04,860 --> 00:00:14,340 Welcome, welcome to the Gowk Stane. The stone also known as the cuckoo stone. 2 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:23,940 And it was said that in early spring, the cuckoo used to land on this stone, signifying the beginning of that time of year. 3 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:41,680 We didn’t just put it here last night, nor last week, nor last year. Not even a hundred years ago. This stone was dug up over three thousand years ago. 4 00:00:42,020 --> 00:01:02,340 A place was hollowed out for it, and so it was raised here. And it will go on standing for as long again. What has it seen in all that time? What events have taken place on the hill? What tales could it tell?
