3D puzzling

I saw your fieldnote, Hamish, and thought 'how on earth can they know how it used to look (and therefore, wouldn't it be totally inauthentic to try and recreate it)' = but, isn't that interesting that there are lots of sketches in existence of the stones, dating back 200+ years. It can't be every cromlech that's been so well documented. Still going to be a bit tricky though - the cromlechs I've seen have looked so well/finely balanced you can hardly believe they're standing anyway! good luck to them I think.

Yeah - good luck indeed! I don't have a link to hand, but believe Heritage Action have been following this quite closely! :)

It's great to see something like this happening after all the negative stories of sites disappearing - could so easily have happened here were it not for a plucky group of people with such a love for the place. Such determination! It's inspirational.
