Well, me, I'm all for obviously weird or otherwise arresting natural rock features. After all the landscape was there before the man-made additions. I'm biased I know, I'm sometimes pretty non-plused by stone circles (HERETIC GET HER OUT OF HERE) and I'm much more taken with the feel of the places, what you can see from where, the shape of the land. I like tors and rock basins and rocking stones and freakily shaped mountains. Which is not to say I don't like big longbarrows and suchlike, but I like them better if the landscape's really bleak so they stand out.
hmmm that's not much of a justification is it.
I suppose it's that whole phenomenology thing. Which isn't foolproof at all is it, because I'm doing it as a 21st century person, and surely I look at things a bit differently from someone in the neolithic. But we must have things in common. Where the best view is. Where's a less draughty place to sit.
