Thornborough "debate"

[mercenary]

I had thought some progress had been made on this forum regarding misconceptions that the public had about archaeological field practice as employed at Ladybridge. The recent press release by the Friends of Thornborough suggests otherwise.

It once again attacks the techniques and by association the archaeologists involved. And worse implies some dodgy dealing by all involved.

I for one have a lot of sympathy for the goals of the protest group, but the problem is the planning system NOT the archaeologists working with it. I suppose the archaeologists just make an easier target.}
