I'm so glad Orkney is where it is, ie too far for the casual tourist to bother. Wouldn't it be depressing to have to get a "land train" to see a fenced off Brodgar?

It's such a fantastic thing that Avebury has managed to remain completely open access. I hope that never changes.

You can be sure that it would be fenced off and £20 for access if the village didn't exist.
