SAVE THE ROTHERWAS RIBBON! (aka Dinedor Snake)

An archaeological find as old as Stonehenge is to be tarmacked over by Herefordshire Council! Excavations at the Rotherwas access road have uncovered a mysterious serpent-shaped feature, dating from the early Bronze Age. The 197ft (60m) long ribbon of stones is 4,000 years old and is ao unique it has been described as Herefordshire's Stone Henge. The Council is proposing to concrete over the find and carry on building the road, the prupose of which is to improve lorry access to Rotherwas. So it's good for business? Bollocks, it's good for one big business who bought the land cheap as it had no existing infrastructure, Arctic Circle. Businesses that where already on the site are being driven off after the estate owners have increased rents. They have tried to keep this secret from the public to prevent any opposition to the road being built. This site is considered by archaeologists to be not only important to just Herefordshire or the UK, but to Europe. Visit www.rotherwasribbon.com and do something about it!
