Just sort of moving on a bit, assuming that the Sanctuary is now pretty well dug to extinction with little or anything more to gain from it, would you like to see it re-instated with new stones to give it a similar look to that of Aubreys days to make it more visually satisfying?


I didn't really pitch the question well enough did I. What I should have asked was if the parking, road and all safety angles and other problems such as the remaining archaeology were dealt with satisfactorily, would you like to see the circles reinstated with new stones to give it a 'feel' and similar look to that of Aubrey's days to make it more visually satisfying?
I wouldn't object myself as long as it looked the part as much as possible and was made quite clear on information boards. And of course whilst being carried out a further chance of studying the archaeology would be possible.




It would have to look better than the concrete posts..surely?
