70,000 people visit Skara Brae each year. That's a lot of people who you 're suggesting aren't really interested. I would like to bet quite a few of them would like to wander around the houses.

What is the difference exactly?

A very small minority of people might be prepared to make the effort to actually do it, the rest won't. People are different. That doesn't make anyone "special".

As an ideal, Rhiannon, would you like to see, say, all the Avebury sites 'fenced off' and unaccessable? And if not, why not?
Theres plenty of damage being done.
