Stone stacking; Though this article covers beaches it does cover cairns and monuments as well, and having seen the Stowe Pound's stone stacking at this settlement it is important to have some rules on the subject, or at least signage.

This doesn't help...lovely and clever as it is until an opportunity like Stowe's Poond comes along to practise on.

The solution is really quite simple and involves no crime or expensive solutions or even enforcing the power of the Law (or creating new Laws). It simply requires any concerned citizens invoking the power of a couple of Newton's existing Laws and the force of Earth's gravity. We had a really enjoyable half hour lobbing melon-sized stones at these stone-stacked "creations" near Imachar. The following day my well-trained 16 year old cleared the piles on the beach boulders at the front of King's Caves in about 20 minutes. At Torrylinn we "re-wilded" the boulder area in less than 10 minutes, but that was about the fifth day of our Arran jaunt and we were really up to speed by then.

Then we built a bonfire of dream catchers.
