Re: Silbury's structural integrity

Rewriting history or what?!


Not as easy as it used to be - some of the Silbury-related comments posted on TMA for example go out as Google Silbury News Alerts and are read nationally and internationally. English Heritage will find it increasingly difficult to hide behind the sort of spin given out by Jim Leary and quoted in the last paragraph of yesterday's Guardian article by Maev Kennedy.*

Meanwhile, you are quite right to ask why a publicly announced correction by English Heritage themselves has not been released.


* http://books.guardian.co.uk/poetry/features/0,,2221939,00.html "They (English Heritage) turned down the suggestion of leaving a new time capsule: "We don't want to do anything that would encourage anyone to try and open the mound again," Jim Leary, the project director, said. "We hope that nobody will ever again follow in our footsteps." (italics mine).
