You can see this image within the newly opened Royal Albert Memorial Museum in Exeter

A message I received from them yesterday

"Thank you for letting RAMM use your image of Spinsters Rock in the new displays. It can be found in the Making History gallery, used in a flip-book of labels about prehistoric monuments in Devon. These flip-books are called 'Go & See' and are dotted around the gallery. Each flip-book gives visitors suggestions of sites and monuments that are related to the museum displays and which they might like to visit."

Through here. The museum contacted me after seeing the photo on this website, three years ago, or so.
They asked my permission to use it as part of a new permanent display when the museum re-opened which it just did!

Nice shooting Tex.
Something slightly similar happened to me a few years ago, I vicar or priest of some sort from Angelsey was doing a slide show for a gathering and to fill in photos which he lacked he asked if he could use mine off here, naturally I said "it'll cost yer". Not really

It goes to show how much people do check out this site for photos to use elsewhere. Which is possibly why the copyright information is so important. texlahoma Posted by texlahoma

wow thats brilliant. I used to live just over the main road and up the opposite lane from Spinsters Rock.
Wish that I could get along to see the exhibition.

They have a really nice dedicated site set up all about ancient Exeter Melc, maybe not the same as being there in person but well worth a look
