BBC Sounds Heart and Stone 25 Feb 2025 Available for over a year Why do we feel connected to certain places?
To certain landmarks, physical sites and imaginary stories? What does our love for city landscapes or the great outdoors say about who we are?

These questions began swirling for Meg as a teenager, sat at the top of Old Oswestry Hillfort. And, nearly a decade later, she’s still captivated by them. From battles over development to innovative archaeology projects involving local residents, Heart and Stone visits two, very different hillforts. One in Oswestry, England, and the other on the outskirts of Cardiff. Can the help us understand our relationship with place and heritage? Do they inform our communities, and offer new perspectives on what we call home?
