the point I've been struggling with here - that is specifically at this site, no others - is that the fieldnotes of the Royal Commission have been dismissed as nonsense
The nonsense comment is related to the site descriptions on Coflein that have been derived from measurements on a map ,hardly “field notes “ notes . e.g. “The site lies equidistant from Maen Llia and concentric 'hengiform' earthwork within the triangle and thus is probably related to them.” . Since when did equidistance show a relationship ? And “its geometric relationship with nearby Bronze Age monuments points to its prehistoric origins .” Since when did geometric relationships provide dating evidence ? Both comments are nonsense .
