Rocks?

I thought that wsa odd, them removing the signs! We saved them a few quid, anyway... Maybe people would take more notice if EH put their own official signs up? Who knows? Silbury's probably slightly different in that it does seem to draw certain people like magnets who just can't keep their grubby boots off it... Most other places (Avebury, etc) probably just suffer from ignorance - not in a nasty way - just people simply not knowing that they shouldn't climb the stones! I suppose it may be reasonable to them that "it's made of rock - what damage can they do?"

IS there anything we can do to raise the pressure to EH to get some signage?

I still think there's nowt wrong with us making our own signs (as long as they don't just end up as litter, of course!)

I think a "pilot study" would be good, bureaucracies like those. We could put up signs at just a couple of places and see if they made a difference. If they did then EH would find it hard to dismiss the idea.
