@richardosgood.bsky.social @drtobydriver.bsky.social Really enjoyed tonight's Digging for Britain! πŸ‘πŸ™‚ Sanctuaries on cliffs (1) Barry Cunliffe has said promontory 'forts' MAY not all be defensive (2) this 'persistent' place on Malta I happened across a few years back on hols. Fascinating.

The Tale of the Toad Stone The Toad Stone lives in the Valley of Stones in Wiltshire (England). Before you visit, hear a little ofΒ the Toad Stone’s story. Scroll quickly enough, and you will see the Toad Stone walk out…
