On the subject of digging up the Stonehenge landscape (see yesterday), Friend of the Journal Jim Rayner has sent us this contribution to the ever-growing list:
English Heritage & the National Trust will not allow as much as a tent peg to be hammered down into the ground near Stonehenge in case it ‘damages any sensitive archaeology’. Yet, they are supporting the potential construction of two massive dual carriageway tunnel portals within the World Heritage Site which would do exactly that! A situation so contradictory, you couldn’t actually make it up!

I think the simple fact is that EH & the NT (plus others) have been hoodwinked into this whole scheme because they couldn’t really think of anything better. The ‘yowling moggies’ series proves that they are breaking many of their own rules in the process – of which the tent peg ban is one!
As mentioned above this is ‘a situation so contradictory, you couldn’t actually make it up!’
