Liking that! I know it's pure speculation and not likely to be in any way provable, but that has a nice feel to it. Although I suspect that the alignment of the row may suggest rather more careful planning than a quick reaction to an event.

Be interesting to know if there is any way of "dating" a sink hole? In so far as "geological time" or "prehistoric time" or "modern" at any rate.
