"Even worse, this fashionable view of Stonehenge fails to address or evoke its singularity. Its obsession with Woodhenges, Sea Henges and Time Team demotic digging only succeeds in downgrading our greatest monument."
A self-defeating statement surely, in looking at the broader picture of the landscape context, we downgrade it's most obvious aspect? Such thinking might save the tooth, but not the teeth. How do we then ever hope to understand "how, and why ... people float and drag heavy bluestones from Wales to Wiltshire"?
Is he saying that 'save it all' is too much for our esteemed politicians to handle, so we have to concentrate on the pointier bits to get anything done?
