Nice to see dowsers, and archaeologists with a more open mind, working together though, as they are at present on the re-erection of Carwynnen Quoit -

“Pip Richards, archaeologist, dowser and activist, who founded The Sustainable Trust with the explicit aim of restoring this endangered leviathan [Carwynnen Quoit] to its former glory. Pip’s tireless work (this event immediately followed three exhausting days spreading the word to all and sundry at the Royal Cornwall Show), ably assisted by a host of fellow dowsers including Andy Norfolk and Bart O’Farrell, has set a chain of events in motion that, fingers crossed (he said, in the most scientific manner possible), will see the major stones back into their former sockets before too long.

“The hugely positive undercurrent of this undertaking is the way in which Pip has managed to draw together the dowsers and the archaeologists (and the archaeological dowsers) to support a common and inter-related cause to such good effect. While the British Society of Dowsers (BSD) Archaeological Dowsing Group (ADG) has made a number of inroads and friends in the profession in recent years, this is a prime example of the two disciplines working together under one banner.”
