Ey up Dave!

The Bradup stone circle, pure & simple, was at SE 0896 4392. I was unaware of any action o behalf of the gas-board, but before its destruction from this coordinate (the remaining stones - several of which were buried - were uprooted & dragged to the end of the field by the wall) someone dumped some oil-drums in the middle of the circle at the end of the 1970s or early '80s. I doubt this had owt to do with the gas-people (unless it's some weird ritual they gerrup to when passing megalithic sites!). If anyone ever wants a foray to the exact spot of this now destroyed site - English Heritage members included - I'd be more than willing to show anyone its old position. It might be worth a few ventures here from occasional TMA members, if only to assess the reaction - if any - of the happy-chappy who lives in the house 200 yards away and who, in my opinion, was responsible for the site's destruction. (if I'm wrong matey, I truly apologise)
