Hi Andy

That's a shame about the bad soundtrack at the beginning, and there were also no subtitles until she started to talk about the type of rock the tomb is built from -Lucious.
If the little stones marked out Mesolithic postholes, that is confusing, as I was led to believe they marked the surrounds of an Ox burial that was concurrent with the tomb itself. It was also portrayed on the site information board,
See here: https://www.megalithic.co.uk/modules.php?op=modload&name=a312&file=index&do=showpic&pid=51642
and

The second link also has links to dowsing plans in the immediate area.
I nearly forgot how this collie 'showed' me the Ox burial site, on an early visit. See comments under the photo, here:

He reminded me of the 'guardian' cat that escorted me at Duloe years ago!

I may have missed more info on this Ox burial as I haven't kept up to date with any excavation news. Thanks for the video link Andy.

Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road
