I can see a potential hazard when there are large groups perhaps.

I'm astounded nobody has been knocked over at Avebury tbh.
Either crossing at the Sanctuary, or from Silbury over to WKLB. Or even in the henge itself.

I can't help but wonder if they're angling for a more dedicated visitor centre...

Agree completely! I applaud the action at Maeshowe - why wait until there are fatalities when it becomes obvious its only a matter of time before it happens.
