mascot Sep 5, 2011

Very good article from the local paper on the dig at Forteviot.

The first image is from the official web site relating to the dig and has been taken from an oblique angle distorting the image and requiring the engraver to have had 2m long arms to get near the motifs .The second is mine taken directly above the motifs .Why were no pics taken from the obvious position and shown on the web site .?

Apologies for such a dull pic but this field , close to an esker on the River Earn was the site of a Class 1 henge 19m in diameter a Class 2 Henge 44 m in diameter and another possible henge 22m in diameter .
