It has come to my attention that the quarrying activities at Thornborough, North Yorkshire, United Kingdom. Is destroying archaeological remains related to the internationally important henge complex on Thornborough Moor.

It is my wish that all quarrying in the vicinity of the Thornborough Henges should be stopped and that the areas surrounding these monuments be protected against future quarrying or other activities that may cause any archaeological remains to suffer damage. It is my wish that the area surrounding the Thornborough henges, to a radius of one mile from each of the henges and cursus should be recognised as part of a historic landscape and protected against further damage.
