Soz wor Peg, but I'm pointing out the assumption of a medieval wall, and I don't put the text up on Stan's bumper website of cups, so tell them about the date error, not I. (Potent though the tma Eds may be here, I don't think they'll have the ability to alter the text on the Archive either...)

Personally, I shall reserve judgement about the row/wall/line-of-stones until I visit it.

Yes, those erroneous decriptors are now written in stone. The listed stone is crappy and I have a couple more photographs of it. It's been part of the row somehow, some stones have been moved about the site and others are in original positions. On that same visit the female archaeology lady pointed out a stone that she considered carved and the two males present just said 'no - oo', and walked off. This summer (after two years of walking past it and looking at it) I washed some mud off the front and found a carved feature beneath. Sadly, that motif isn't recognised by the rock art lot, so the stone will continue to be 'lost'. That Row 1 has three separate alignments - the longest perhaps being the southernmost moonrise, to the hillside behind Alston. It's a big site - half a mile by half a mile - full of scattered stuff.
