Yes, but, you must agree, it`s better that their ignorance is not transferred onto this site. I don`t particularly like the name `The Hoarstones`. In the Greater Midlands area, there are many `Hoar Stones` or some corruption of that name. I would prefer this circle to have a different name, yet, although very few people know more about this site than I do, I have no authority to change tradition.

I feel sorry for poor little Circle 275, in Conwy, which hasn`t got a name, just a number. I`d give it one, if I could.

We`re still left with the problem of The Hoarstones appearing under `South Wales and the Borders`, whereas Mitchells Fold, less than two miles to the south, comes under ` Gwynedd, Clwyd & N. Powys`, as in the book. Is this a problem for Holy?

Mitchells Fold and The Hoarstones should be grouped together.
