Re: The bluestone debate

"Worked ballast stones" sounds like a cover story put round by the glacierati and their lizard friends. It would fall apart if they had tenons.


Working in the dark here but it might not have been a good idea to cut the tenons until the stones were actually on site. All we really need, to disprove the glacial theory, are one or two dressed bluestones in Wales (or en route to Salisbury Plain).

Over the years there have been several reports of blue stones being seen by divers on the bottom of Milford Haven and the surrounding coastline, but nothing had ever been proved.


As you say, sounds like a fun project for someone... (but don't we have to geophys the buried Avebury stones first ;-)
