Was at Tregeseal a week or so ago. Haven't had chance to compare new pics with previous years to look for "leans". The whole area around the circle is now covered in cowpats. We didn't get up to the holed stones this time, but I have to say that the stones alleged to have been broken by the cows were previous breaks that had been cemented back together quite crudely.

The EH intervention got a big write-up in the Cornishman (the local paper) too, which was good to see.

Craig Weatherhill and Ian Cooke* have been warning about this ever since the "Heathland Project" was introduced, shame it's taken video evidence being posted on youtube to make anyone pay attention. Sadly Natural England appear to be very obdurate and will not compromise their scheme.

We visited a number of sites that CASPN take responsibility for keeping clear (Mulfra courtyard houses for example), which highlight a much better way of protecting the monuments from vegetation. I noted that a small area of heather and gorse just north of Treen Common enclosure has been burnt back as well, which has always provided another option to grazing.

*Craig and Ian have written extremely informative books about the monuments of West Penwith, which remain by far the most useful guides for the area.
