Just love this by the archoaelogist (sorry can't spell first thing in the morning)

"In the meantime, we think that the structure is of very considerable importance in its use of deliberately burnt stone to pave a purposely-sculpted surface. Its very likely representation of a specific form (snake/cord/symbolic river) is also remarkable. The re-surfacing or re-inscription (at least in part) of the monument is also very unusual. In its possession of all these aspects together, it is so far unique, and considerably expands the known repertoire of monumentality in Neolithic/Early Bronze Age Europe. Its presence in Herefordshire should and will provoke a considerable re-think of the erstwhile widely supposed ‘peripheral’ character of Neolithic and Bronze Age activity here ."

"Does the Council realise how important it is?"
