"The comparison between Thornborough gravel and Lewis wind power doesn't stand up. They're nothing like each other."

I guess it depends on the angle we look at them from. Society wants or needs to use much of the land in this country but there should be agreed exempted areas where other priorities can be chosen - birds, ancient sites or whatever. Thornborough and Callanish have very strong claims for inclusion in those under the "ancient sites" classification.

As things stand the "view" at Callanish isn't something that falls within the protection system. HA has argued that under the new protection system there should be provision for inclusion of "setting" and, exceptionally, viewscape as part of the area that could be scheduled.
