Littlestone's remark about sending the 'stone erectors' to Avebury got me thinking. 'What is there left to do?'.
There's stones by the beech tree roots that weren't erected, because of the onset of the war, right? What about those stones they found under the earth? There was supposed to have been a map of where they were found in the visitor's center at the barn, but I've never seen one. Any news on this? I've looked for it most times I've visited, but to no avail.
i have a 'fair copy' plan of the buried stones' location - i'm at and will gladly forward copies to anyone interested

it's high time Avebury was restored now, megalith restorations are taking place up and down the British Isles, whilst 2/3 of this this premier neolithic site, is left in buried neglect - sat on (quite literally) by both the National Trust and English Heritage - this is the shame of British archaeology

I have now added a plan showing the stones discovered by the A.C.Smith survey in 1881 which are presumably the same ones surveyed in 2003.
