20+ years since last visit to the Trowlesworthy sites (long-ingrained snootiness to the china clay works?); never mind the despoiled landscape, here’s a shit-up cairn circle. Awesome stone row and avenue too.

Half a frigging billion years old
On Salisbury Plain yesterday we came across these fairy shrimps, living in a temporary pond formed by the ruts of tank tracks.

The Plain – which we’re increasingly digging I tell ya – is a stronghold apparently. OK, so now we gotta build a pond over the winter.
