When I was filming there a couple of days ago there were two local kids climbing on the 'fallen' stone... And this morning 4 German tourists turned up for a flying visit and for the 'family album' three climbed onto the same stone while the fourth took the photo.


That is why many here have campaigned for years against climbing on monuments Roy. You see it all the time at Avebury – I’ve even seen people climbing up the Cove stones, one of which also developed a dangerous tilt a few years ago and had to be pulled back into the perpendicular. The message is simple – Do not climb on monuments, doing so damages them and may result in serious injury!

Good on you for planning to contact Cornwall County Archaeology Department on Tuesday!


Thanks LS..guess I'd better get my work finished there mighty quick though!!:D
