[Stones] A penny for your thoughts?

[littlestone]

I'm a little surprised that Andy B should find ric's justified concern for the buried stones at Avebury a cause for boredom (though to be strictly accurate the buried stones within the Avebury circle are not subject to agricultural machinery going over them, and the fact that they were buried has, ironically, probably saved them). The possible danger from agricultural machinery are the stones buried in the Kennet and Beckhampton Avenues.

The other 'mechanical' danger at both Avebury and Stonehenge, of course, is the one that comes with the high (and heavy) volumes of traffic close to those monuments - and that is possibly a greater cause for concern.
