I worked out they were an import because the masonry is very new by contrast. No idea where though Gloria.

The original masonry is also at this place.
Clue…..it was collected by a guy who has a museum in his own name, but where did it also originate?

Can I try a different format? See how it goes. Remember Twenty Questions? Animal, vegetable or mineral?
I've just ordered something from ebay. It's vegetable and mineral and cost over £100. What is it?

Twenty questions with yes/no answers. Go for it . . . . :smile:
