As controversy still rages about the return of the Elgin Marbles, the people of Bo'ness are clamouring for the return of the "Bridgeness Slab". Sadly, I have to say that the man who discovered it and gave it away was a "Mr Henry Cadell of the Grange". Grangers, eh?UPDATE: Another BOOB Success.
Lengthy online campaign by Mowgs ensures the return of the Bridgeness Stane.
