Not sure this is still in print - I got my copy browsing in a Castlebar bookshop en-route to Dooncarton - but nevertheless an excellent volume with many colour photos, plans and equally informative text from Carleton Jones focussing upon Ireland's megalithic tombs.

Just Started "Stairway to the Stars" and it kicks off with a pretty great section on Stonehenge. Bit heavy going in places, but looks like its going to a good read :)

See - http://heritageaction.wordpress.com/2011/02/17/17th-century-stonehenge-book-discovered/ Looks interesting, although it cant be in ‘Old English’ if it’s 17th century.

I thought it odd that no name was mentioned VBB so thought it may be something entirely 'new'. But knowing your 'heat-seeking' abilities for finding things out you will already be on the case :D
