I've wandered round a fair few sites and although the preservation in the green and pleasant land is nowhere near what you'll get in italy / greece the fact remains that theres a fair bit of it lying aroundwhats more impressive is sites like stonehenge (>4000 years) and various other stone circles and henges all over 2000 years old and thats without any magical spells woven into it (jury's stil out on stonehenge <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/laugh.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" />)in terms of bodies, there's bog bodies dug up in the low countries and uk (google lindow man) that are ~2000 years oldhaving said that the memory of things sometimes changes. roman ruins were reported as giant built by the medievalists and infamously the pyramids were thought to be granaries until the modern era</blockquote>
