Perish the very thought that I should ever be accused of saying they were incompetent, but... "the largest pre-historic manmade structure in Europe" ?? Can that be right, and what do they mean?

Not the widest, or longest certainly. Nor the greatest volume I'd have thought. The highest? Maybe, but why not say so?

Big surprise,..."EH do Silbury an injustice"...

"largest Neolithic built structure in Europe" appears in one of the lines of the report...
