The main thrust of the argument is of course the fencing of the moors which is seen as very unfriendly, you would know more about that ;), whether as TJJ says that fencing round the circles would help I don't know - lots of grumbling from photographers and people who want to get into the circle....


Just to clarify, in my post I mentioned Boscawen-un - as an example, not of fencing in the barbed wire sense, but of an wonderful stone circle which is protected by a circular enclosure of gorse and blackthorn (beautifully in bloom when I visited a couple of Aprils ago). There are a lot of blackthorn hedges in that area which are quite effective as fencing - as anyone who has tried to scrabble through them will confirm.
