There have been a number of enquiries recently on the blog about the whereabouts of the key papers dealing with the geology of the bluestones. As a service to mankind -- since Rob is probably far too modest to do it himself -- here is a list of his published contributions on the Stonehenge / bluestone theme. Rob -- if I have forgotten any, apologies -- please add them if you wish.
