but what *can you do to prevent this? short of removing the stones and replacing them with replicas. If some fwit wants to go to the bother of going up there armed with a can of paint, short of sitting there 24 hrs a day waiting to smash their tiny skulls on the rock carvings, what can you do?
rhetorical question but all suggestions welcome.

Yeah, I know. Tis a difficult one.

In connection with the daubing of the Willy Hall's Wood Stone, HA suggested an 'awareness drive' asking peeps to be vigilant & report it if they see anything (I notice this is one of the things mentioned in the quotes in the news article...).

We suggested posting notices about rockart on the moor, including clarifying that it's a criminal act to deface it. Haveta say I had reservations about that, as I feel it wouldn't deter mindless twats and could even give em the idea!

Other than that, I don't think we came up with owt either.
