...Any water that seeps into an ancient barrow should percolate down pretty swiftly between the stones.
...At Grianan Of Aileach the restoration was cocked up and mortar used in places to bind the stonework. Water accumulated behind the mortar, froze in winter and expanded, and forced the stones apart, causing collapses.
...Hope it doesn't happen at WKLB.
