Re: Scheduled Monument Consents - accessibilty?

I suspect this is one of those areas where they have full control. The EH website doesn't really give any clues, though there may be some idea of the process on the application form.

Re: Calendar

It's already there - look on the top menu navbar. It's also in the list of pages on the lefthand menu.

Calendar

Just wanted to say, I'm loving the Events Calendar page. If I see an event on the web, a couple of minutes later we can have a calendar entry for it! No more preparation a month in advance, and plenty of scope for last minute entries! If you have anything you want added, just let either me or Sue Br...

Oh I don't know. I pay £300 for a rose tree for £10 years on my parents' plot. If it ever gets built, I suspect it'll last a lot longer than 30 years...

Ah, it's the guy that runs http://www.sarsen.org/ - he's also got a Facebook Group for this project at https://www.facebook.com/groups/461357813920636/ and seems to have been done to death on TMA. Seems I'm late to the party (again!) on this one.
