i loved every line of this, including the title. Just going to go and read it again

I too savoured every line. Beautifully descriptive. A picture painted with words.
Tina
yes, absolutely beautiful. But what does the title mean please?
I took the title to mean that Man had ruined a beautiful part of the landscape by building on it, a factory, shops, houses, whatever. I guess stones just don't grow - not like grass and plants. Anyway I might be wrong - just my take. Thanks 27, for making me think about it. Tina
Thanks for flagging this, Juliet.
Also thanks to everyone for the kind coments.
The title is intended to be ironic-only stones grow here, now.
