Moggy what have you done, yet another P38 Harlech thread going over all the same issues as you rightly say “again”. The only news was the grant and Ancient Monument status. So here we have another survey, but of what? The sand? How do you protected it physically when it is buried under sand in the tidal zone? Although the beach is fairly isolated in winter there is a good car park at the rear of the beach and only a few locals dogging, I mean walking their dogs. It would be very easy to access the site, which is certainly not a secret anymore, and plunder. No legal status of any form would stop the looters, you would need a 24 hour guard. When I visited the site in December 2014 I had no problems working out where the location was and that the she was buried again.
Forget Tigar and fizzing all been done to death in previous threads. If someone wants to pay to recover her that’s their business. If the Welsh government want to stump up money even better. If the government money pays for recovery perhaps to the Caernarfon museum just along the coast all well and good. The big questions are would the museum want it and do the government understand what is necessary after recovery? The answer in both cases is probably not.
