Hi again Nigel
Yea, four logs longitudinally, two to rest the stone on, two for fulcrums.
(Have another look at the photos on the site)

In theory as few as four men can move a stone of forty tons.(not far though)

Regarding Avesbury, given a chance I'll have a go at owt.

PS only a dumbhead would ask!!! What are cursuses?
