Hmm...

Succinctly put, my friend, and I have to say that I agree with you. To a certain extent... Although the addition of such sites might encourage further investigation into the actual age and use of such places by those more knowledgeable than myself. I would be happy to remove all and any sites that anyone can prove without a doubt that they <i>weren't</i> used by prehistoric man.

Hmm...

Well (haha), I have 2 of my sites which I will to remove (as much as I hate the removal of sites here!) as I feel these have the least going for them in the investigation stakes. The water has long since dried up in one of them anyway and it seems to be currently in use as a litter bin, and they've both been heavily "modernised" (many many years ago, granted!). T'other has had a beautifully carved wooden door nailed shut over it so will leave no chance of exploration! <a href="http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/site/4094">St Caratocus' Holy Well</a>, and <a href="http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/site/4095">St Ambrew's Holy Well</a>...

Any more, let me know and I'll see what I can dig up (so to speak) about the (pre)history of them.

Does anyone know how to delete sites?

After re-reading this, I will leave it unedited, but am sure it sounds a bit narkier than it's meant to! Sorry - had a crap nights' sleep!
