Go up if you want but not onthe basis of obvious fictions like that. The damage to the North side is blindingly obvious and it's caused by people going up in wet conditions, nothing to do with archaeologists trying to shift the blame.

I'm not arguing with you but you can see it caving in [because of all the holes inside], and like Evergreen said we've all given our opinions before [time and again], i know this site includes various circles but this going round and around is just bloody silly [and maybe even madness].

Quite. I just wanted to establish for the record that the damage was caused by people climbing in wet weather. There are "differing opinions" but they don't affect the facts.

Just so I'm clear in my mind.

Is this thread about a link to the news about damaged caused by trespass to one of our most famous prehistoric monuments? Obviously the answer is yes.. It's about damage caused because there are people going up there in bad ground conditions.

Now, given that this is a site about prehistory and the news is about damage to a prehistorical site. I can not for the life of me see why this is not a vadid subject for debate.

Tresspass,with damage to a monument.
