"As many people have pointed out, there is not a single piece of evidence to support the latter, whereas there is quite a lot of evidence to support the former. So on the balance of probablilities, the glacial transport theory has to be the one to go for "

I don't think lack of evidence is a reason to say "on the balance of probabilities" it didn't happen. It still may have so should be retained as a reasonable theory and the fact that there's possible evidence for something else having happened doesn't change that. Some processes simply happen but leave no sign. Where is the evidence, footprints, drag marks or empty holes, for the theory that the sarsens were dragged to Stonehenge from the Marlborough Downs?
