Jane, your words in your weblog

"Although this 'Shock, Horror' vandalism, coming so suddenly and so graphically to our attention baffles us, how is it -ultimately- any different to the sneaky ploughing, the metal detectoring, the chip-chip-chipping away at our ancient heritage that happens unnoticed every day of every year...?"

just about hits it on the button. We're doing a Rollrights here and there every single day in this short-sighted valueless culture of ours and the terrible thing is that every backwards step is totally irrevocable. If anybody hasn't yet joined Heritage Action they bloody well should. It probably won't stop mindless vandals but it might stop some of the calculating ones.
