The Guardian has published a diagram showing the stunning scale of a 4,500-year-old feature found in the Stonehenge Landscape: 20 massive pits in a circle 1.5 miles across and less than a mile from the line of the planned new road.
If that has only just been found, so close, what are the chances something else very important may be found during the works?

The question arises, would any responsible country or its archaeologists dream of going ahead with the short tunnel scheme knowing that whatever is found will certainly be bulldozed away within weeks?

There has to be a way we can still move to connecting our world together and still preserving these sites. The responsible thing to do now is to pause the modern construction plans re survey and adjust around the new discoveries so they can be studied properly. We are not our ancestors we know better now we can do better.
