Send in Time Team. It'll be excavated in double quick time - and someone can put some more houses on top of it. And the local people will get on the telly. Everyone's a winner.

What can these grand neolithic tombs be anyway?

So is Hampshire just fifteen miles from Stonehenge? (Hempshire, etymolol).The approach of their County Archaeologist may be contrasted with that of the Gtr Manchester Unit. It's all in the public domain. Dig, for the sake of cultural continuity. The bones belong to the nation - genetically. Send them to Matt Ridley @ the Centre for Life.
