Seeing a saxon feature in a Norman church that others miss doesn't make me wish it was all 'signed' up. It just gives me pleasure.


Do you not think you may have missed the point ... if someone came along and 'copied' a Saxon feature then then left it somewhere where it may be mistaken for an authentic feature - it would be desirable to know it was not original. That is all I have to say on the matter as I am aware Hob is a highly esteemed contributor. However, it does make me wonder when people (not necessarily you) jump up and down about others climbing on ancient monuments or visiting Skara Brae out of hours can be ok with this. Am genuinely perplexed by these double standards. If that view makes me an outcast on this forum ... well, no change there. I stand by my view.
