Hi
For those interested in Neolithic Mendip/northern Somerset thought that you might like to know that my book (based on my PhD thesis) entitled "Monuments, Ritual and Regionality: the Neolithic of Northern Somerset" has just been published by British Archaeological Reports (Archaeopress 2005). In it I present new findings and interpretations of all the sites in the region, including Stoney Littleton, Stanton Drew, Priddy Circles, Devil's Bed and Bolster, Fairy's Toot and many more. Also covered are caves and swallets, settlement sites, ritual pits etc etc. My work on tufa will be published separately, however.
Seems a plug I know, but there are no royalties involved - all done to further our knowledge of this important region!
Best wishes
Jodie Lewis

Love to get a copy, any idea how much?
Jim
P.S. Go caving in the Mendips so would like to know more about the legends which surround the swallow holes.

Jodie,
If you send me a snail address I will post you a CD rom of photos I took of Priddy henges from the air on a beautifull December morning.
Vince Russett recommended your work to me,
