Clach MacPhee


Listen Later

In this debut episode, we will be covering The MacPhee Lifting Stone in Islay, Scotland, exploring the rich history of this location, and uncovering little known facts about Clach MacPhee.


My special guest is New England Stonelifting's own Jarrett McPhee (@newenglandstonelifting) from Rhode Island. He recently visited and lifted this stone a few months ago, becoming the first McPhee in 400 years to accomplish a successful lift.


Jarrett shares information from John Dewar, author of John Dewar's Islay, Jura and Colonsay (https://www.johndewarpublishers.com/john-dewars-islay-jura-and-colonsay/) which covers the incredible story of how The MacPhee Stone became a test of strength. He also gives us an in-depth description of the stone itself and the challenges it presents when attempting a lift. Sit back and enjoy as we have at it discussing all things CLACH MACPHEE!
