Geoff Burdon is a country boy with no roots. A tractor accident has put the family out of their tenant farm and his father into a wheelchair. Geoff rejects the attractions of "emigrating" to town, and invests his passion in quarrying and working Purbeck stone. He is seduced by the venerable tradition of rural anarchism and determined to stay, at all costs.
