David Jacques seems likeable and I enjoyed reading the piece about him on Heritage Action.

Was intrigued by this but can't find anything about this site anywhere. Is it known as something else? Haven't yet visited the Isle of Man (its now back on my list).

"What is your favourite British archaeological site… and why?"
"Mule in the Isle of Man. This Neolithic chambered tomb was excavated just after the war by a German prisoner of war. It is located in an absolutely stunning position which overlooks Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England. It is also the only point on Man where you can see right across it. This site, like the Isle of Man itself, is a sleeping archaeological giant in the Irish Sea. It was clearly an enormously important, but now largely ‘lost’ place in the British Neolithic."
