This view from Son Catlar reminded me of the ‘sleeping woman’ hill formation on the Isle of Lewis.

We wanted to try a beach over to the south west of the island, and see Son Catlar poblat (see pages 310 and 311 of TME) which was on the way.

Extensive and impressive though this complex is, it failed to light my fire in any way whatsoever. It was just too big and too ruined for me to make sense of.

Rupert summed it up in his diary. He wrote: ‘… a huge prehistoric village but it looked like a big pile of rocks, the only good thing was the wall, and even that was boring...’ Gah! Eleven-year-olds are notorious hard to please.
