Yes best pics yet. Starting to get a handle on this 'thing'. Maybe some top TMA snappers like Cian or Mustard or the many others should go down there just in case it gets covered up. Have they extended the 'open days'?

There has been (at least) 2 TV reports on BBC Midlands Today, the last was monday or tuesday, that being the 9th or 10th. There was 2 councillors one against the road as a result of the discovery in tow with a retired council archaeologist who were clearly seeking a moratorium, and the other who stated that the proposed road will 100% go through, and words to state that exposure to the elements will result in erosion. If there has been a timetable to decide on viewing all the issues then this statement by the councillor in being premature may be highly contentious, and call his ability to hold office into question. Can this be an appropiate use of the Freedom of Information act in order to put severe pressure on English Heritage and Hereford Auth to expose any possible Gimcrackery. I think there is great scope to cause maximun embarrassment, and get laid into the local Bulls Lions and freemasons.
Exposure to the elements? Yea! that means that the ancients took all precautions to lay a blinding of sand, topsoil and turf to save it for future generation.
What a loade of Piddle and piffle
