Re: Wind turbines at Rudston

Both turbines and field walls are, of course, alien in the strictest sense of the word but (to my mind at least) the latter blends more easily, and more harmoniously, with its surroundings; perhaps that has something to do with the latter’s simplicity of construction, the use of local stone, the personal touch in the craft that developed the technique – ditto thatched houses and honey-coloured Cotswold cottages. I don’t get that with a wind turbine I’m afraid, nor with slagheaps (no matter how ‘artistically’ they’re presented :-)

I haven’t visited Grimes Graves I’m afraid so I don’t know how I’d feel about the place. But I do believe that most people (here at least) don't choose things based on selfish interests. The overriding motivation of most of the people I’ve met on TMA is one of protecting our heritage – whether it be megalithic or more spiritually based – and of sharing that motivation with others.
