Well they have certainly made a big effort putting this slideshow together http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/server/show/nav.18601

and their wording is so vehement it is indistinguishable from the sort of tone Heritage Action sometimes uses ;)

Worth bearing in mind next time HA gets criticised for shouting about stuff. Whether making a loud case is laudable or ignorant depends entirely on what stuff is involved.

Blimey...

This just adds further insult to injury!

1.6km away? Good job it's not a couple of hundred yards away, like Bonds bloody Garage, isn't it?

They've got a cheek.

Here's a jape. See if you can spot my alterations to their wording:

"Why, you may ask, is this project so important for Avebury that it is worth severely damaging some of our most dramatic, beautiful and best-loved views for it to go ahead?

It must be a nationally-important building of some kind, surely?

No. It is a private residential scheme of 5 houses.

Is that really all our heritage is worth?

So what can you do about it?

A Public Inquiry to decide whether this project should go ahead... didn't happen.

If you would like to help protect these views and stop the Bonds Garage houses, don't bother sending us any emails with your objections as it's too late."
