Fair enough!

and allegedly the oldest dated long barrow ? according to Magic.


Ah - that's probably why it's scheduled despite being so ruined.

so why is it being maltreated in this way. What IS the world coming to?


Is your tongue in your cheek, R? Par for t'course isn't it?

Actually, I think most of the damage is pretty damned old - it's been ploughed down & the track put over it a long, long time ago. And then the plantation. No excuse for damage since it's been scheduled tho!!! Trouble is nobody gives a stuff - least of all EH & local council archaeos (or has money/time to do owt about it, depending who you believe) - as has been well discussed here.

Not a dig at you, R, but tbh even most TMAers just throw up their hands & then do piss-all - as evidenced by the lack of real help for the few that keep Heritage Action going. (Just for info, I've more-or-less given up working on HA myself simply because of the huge lack of interest from just about anybody in the world.)
