Don't confuse the two ICOMOS's

This letter from ICOMOS UK appeared in the Gazette & Herald - a local newspaper to Wiltshire on 21st April 2018 and yes, it's long winded but needs reading from start to finish...especially that last paragraph where Mr Marsden the Chair of ICOMOS-UK would like the A303Stonehenge project "put on hold"!!!?
The UK version of ICOMOS - International Council on Monuments and Sites - should not be confused with ICOMOS whom we had an audience with on 7th March this year at the Holiday Inn, Amesbury, and are the "real" association who look after monuments and world heritage sites.

Since the letter addressed to Highways "Agency" is easily found on Google, we felt the need to respond having had the approval from our contacts at: www.highways.gov.uk/A303Stonhenge/consultation and this is our reply copied to
