Hmmm, might still be worth contacting the university.

I just about finished going through the book and revising it somewhat. I have edited it to feature the sites where there is something to see and the sites where there is little or nothing, plus the sites that I didn't include will be included as a list with grid refs at the back.

I've now made all the maps 'un-OS like' as I could. The page count is now down to 192. I have looked at posting it at lulu.com to self publish it, but production cost on a single copy if you wanted one would still be £28, which I think is too much. This is because it is full colour throughout.

If anyone is desperate for a copy then I would be willing to send out a disk with a pdf of the whole book on it, but bear with me a little while longer as I have one more site I want to visit and include (an excavated burial mound and standing stone right on the western edge of the Peak which isn't listed here so it will be posted up as soon as I have been to it!)

Cheers!

I don't know if it's versatile enough for what you want, but have you tried Blurb? Great quality books...

Other than that - yes please to the PDF! :)

I'd love a copy too if possible.

On the subject of Ash Cabin Flat it's worth a trip out there if you haven't been in the last few weeks as the bank in particular is much more defined without all the undergrowth. The place is like a lunar landscape at the moment though and strangely enough the circle was more difficult to find now the small trees in the middle have been singed to a crisp, the whole character of the site has changed. Even the sheep looked miserable :-(
