Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	A henge monument, probably constructed in the Early Bronze Age, was near circular at 31.0-33.5m in diameter, with a broad U-shaped ditch and an entrance to the south-east. The former presence of an external bank was indicated by deposits of limestone that had come in from outside. To the south of the henge a small pit contained an assemblage of decorated and rusticated Beaker sherds, and fragments of hazelnut shell. There were a few shallow pits within the interior of the henge, and to the north-west an unurned cremation burial of a 6-8 year old child, accompanied by a jet bead. A Middle Bronze Age side-looped spearhead came from the upper fill of the henge ditch. An adjacent L-shaped ditch system has been dated to the Middle Bronze Age. The ditch produced red deer antler, part of a human femur and fragments from a cylindrical fired-clay loomweight.
