Well, I suppose thats my point too in a way. If there is no meaning or connection to the past, why build a copy of a Neolithic long barrow? Why would somebody long to be interred in a structure that has no meaning beyond 'it looks vaguely like a long barrow'?

I must stress I really do mean no offence at all to those involved or interested, and it is horses for courses, live & let live etc but, I don't know, as much as I believe in peoples right to choose I also feel in someway a bit sad about this, its a bit distasteful/cheapening in some way.

I'm probably being too over sensitive about it.
